I use the command line syntax to explain the kernel API.

Most commands are mapped 1:1. And the API easier to understand if it is so.

I think now, provide a high-level command besides the low-level commands is a good idea. We need it for the old wext interface anyway. Then wext can only call this command and don't need own intelligence. So than it's only a foolish wrapper, like it should.
