I set it up with ifconfig the output appears correctly in ifconfig and
it functions correctly, yes.

The only issue is the behaviour of ancontrol.

There will always be some features one card has that nothing else has
- the Cisco cards have lots of weird options I have had no reason to
touch, like the antenna diversity, and some I may need at some point,
like preferred access points.  Where the line is on which are
worthwhile bringing into ifconfig is debatable and if you are working
on the support presumably up to you ;)

Sure.
