Actually, I want PF_RING DNA to *NOT* support the stack. The sorts of things 
I'm doing with PF_RING are security related, that a PF_RING adapter cannot be 
hooked up to the Linux network stack is a good feature.

For example, my latest PF_RING supporting project is "isowall":
https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/isowall

If the network adapter on the hostile side of the firewall is "dna0", then I 
can be guaranteed that the Linux network stack isn't ever going to be 
accidentally connected to the adapter. The user would have to go through lot of 
effort to uninstall the DNA driver before they can make other mistakes.

So I'm hoping you don't add the featur :)
