I'm not sure how practical it is, but it would be really nice if we
could achieve it -- I predict that debugging mesh behaviour in the field
is going to be nigh-on impossible in the current situation.

There was an alternative libertas driver which uses the device in 'dumb'
mode with the kernel's mac80211 stack. Coupled with mesh support in
mac80211 that might make a somewhat suboptimal alternative to truly free
firmware.
