[RFC] mcc and mnc

A question for all developers,

What do you think about having kannel pass mnc and mcc information to
applications? Sometimes applications need to know the operator for the
incoming MO (a logo download application being the typical example), and
kannel is the closer element to the operator (and so the most reliable point
to declare this info, so you have not to guess based on the mobile number).

So we could have mcc=xx and mcc=xx directives in every sms-c (for direct
operator connections), or in the case you have a multi-operator link (a
NetSize o MobileWay one for example), we could give the driver the chance to
set those attributes in msg->sms.mcc and msg->sms.mnc members, if possible.

Maybe I am missing something obvious, but this is a thing I have implemented
and find extremely useful.

Comments?
