When we have patched all the Windows PC of the world, we can consider it.

In the mean time, AT+PPP emulation is required. Some modems do provide data 
counters including that. I've seen it as a requirement that I would rather 
have avoided but could not. It's ugly and arguably stupid, but required 
anyway. In fact, if Ofono won't do it, ConnMan will have to, which is probably 
by all means worse.

You can argue that it should be a driver-specific feature, but it has to be 
there. Hence, I would guess that more than one driver will support eventually, 
at which point it should probably be in the common API.
