I'm thinking that's the good thing about all this pre-amble discussion. If we discuss the proposed specification for the interface up front and iron it all out (as best we can) before we implement and then ship ... that will make sure we are all in agreement.
As I understand it, if we build this new interface ... that will be a new interface that will not have been coded to previously? It will be a generic interface that all existing boards could choose to implement and at that point, a "WiFi" implementation would then be normalized. I could also imagine that we could choose that the existing implementations remain exactly the same so that there would be TWO ways that WiFi could be used ... one would be the way that exists for boards that already exist ... and the other would be a "common" mechanism that new boards would comply against.
I don't personally consider the ESP8266 support "released" so as yet, all ESP8266 board users are still alpha/beta testers and should expect flux.
