Hi,

Furthermore the wireless satck will still be functional without
CRDA.

IMHO that remaining functionality is too limited. Think about a WLAN , where
the router is intentionally configured not to use channel 1-11,maybe because
that range is overloaded with other WLANs. After the Upgrade to factory/11.2
you won't be able to connect to that WLAN any more without setting the
regulatory domain.
There were allready problems with the regulatory domain before. I was not able
to connect with ath5k to a network on channel 13 ...

See: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=392853

regards
Felix Möller
