  excuse me:
    I do not quite know how to reply the [RFC PATCH].
    it would be better if you can tell me how to do for [RFC PATCH], thanks.

    :-)

  at least for me:

    although it is good idea to add common, widely used features in public tools function.

    after searching the relative source code:
      it seems print ssid is not quite widely used (although it is a common feature).
        it is used by drivers/net/wireless/libertas
        it is used by drivers/net/wireless/ipw2x00
        no additional using in current kernel source code wide.
      if another modules want to print ssid,
        they can still call print_ssid now (EXPORT_SYMBOL in net/wireless).

    so at least now, it is not necessary to add this feature to public tools function.
