I can only answer for myself, but I'll do that as I was responsible for
that thread...

I am not working on this feature, and probably won't be either. At least
not in the near future. The protocol is pretty well described.  The rest
currently looks more like real work than real fun. I am lazy, and mostly
in this business for the fun.

Sorry about that.  Feel free to implement the feature yourself :-)

I might change opinion if the lack of this feature becomes a real pain
for me personally.  But that won't happen until Sierra Wireless starts
releasing regular firmware updates.  Still hoping someone with better
programming skills will do it before that happens...
