Although that thing was my idea, I prefer #13. I think Johannes said that
too and given the fact that #14 is just a subset of #13 (regarding
functionality), you can save some time by not working on #14 ;-)

The only advantage of this would be not having monitor interface when using
tools like aircrack. But this is so specific usage that we don't care.
