mac80211 does not support WPA when used with wext

Hello
While testing the iwlwifi driver I noticed that the mac80211 does provide a wext interface but does not support wpa with it.
Why? Is this a known bug/limitation.
And if yes any plans to fix it? Fedora 7 uses mac80211 by default which results into networkmanager and (unpatched)wpa_supplicant is useless for people who use WPA/WPA2.

P.S: please CC me
