+# TODO: Selecting PHYs and frequency bands is abstracted by the concept
+#       of channel pages in recent versions of the standard (see
+#       IEEE 802.15.4-2020, 10.1.3).
+#       This option will be replaced by configuration options on driver
+#       instance level that allow selection of a channel page as well
+#       as other PHY-specific configuration options (frequency bands,
+#       operating modes, etc.).
+#       New and existing drivers should not introduce additional
+#       references to this option.
