My wmediumd fork (https://github.com/bcopeland/wmediumd) could benefit from this as well -- right now it assumes you use OFDM rates only. It probably makes sense to send the driver rate array as a separate netlink message though instead of in-band with CMD_FRAME, since it doesn't change per frame and amount of data sent over netlink in the datapath already imposes a performance limit.
