No, that was intentional so if you have say an Intel card builtin and
plug in a ralink usb device w/o regulatory information, that device's
information is used.

And making it global but then applying it only to devices that don't
have their own information is actually harmful because it suddenly means
that not all devices are restricted by the same rules which would make
it effectively impossible for a user to verify she's operating within
the law.

Why is this an issue for you to start with? Can you not use crda on the
system?
