[driverloader] useless /proc/net/wireless

Hello,

driverloader (1.42) is working perfectly on my Asus S1N (centrino) :-)

I downloaded two programs that monitor the wireless interface but they
don't report anything because /proc/net/wireless dosen't report any
device statistics:

   lory at kiwi [~] cat /proc/net/wireless 
   Inter-| sta-|   Quality        |   Discarded packets               | Missed
   face  | tus | link level noise |  nwid  crypt   frag  retry   misc | beacon
    wlan0: 0000    0     0     0        0      0      0      0      0        0
   
FAQ #23 says that there are some limitations in NDIS. 

My question is: can this issue be fixed in the future?

Thank you very much for the good work.
