I'm fine to drop #2 as a justification point, or maybe reword the commit message
to say, "you could also just do... but since we have it for #1 already..."

It does not break ABI. The agreement is userspace must always use the QUERY
command to find out what commands are supported. If it tries to use a RAW
command that is a supported command, it will be rejected. In the case you
mention, that's an application bug. If there is a way to document that better
than what's already in the UAPI kdocs, I'm open to suggestions.

Unlike perhaps other UAPI, this one only promises to give you a way to determine
what commands you can use, not the list of what commands you can use.
