Without mode-set there is no need for device-set at all, right?
So it is better to implement at least one set command, so we don't
need remove device-set command entirely.

Well AFAIK, RHEL is doing some monitoring software, so the end-users need this.

Without this, from end-user perspective, it would be very confusing.
As in ice without any label there would 4 pins which differs only with id.
What names would you suggest?
