The thing is, once it's added to the protocol, we'll have to keep it around
forever. So do we have a clear way to go from what you suggest to the
future/better scale in dB? Ie will we add one more field in dB and fill
both the old and new values, will we add capabilities check to know the
format of the field, or is it something that you were planning to think
about later?

I'm not saying the current format is bad btw, I'm just trying to make sure
that we won't regret having added this to the protocol in a few months from
now ;)
