I very much agree that having a better packet constructor would be a nice
improvement.  Luckily the current way works and isn't complicated.

I also agree that Ethernet is quite simple, but there had might as well be set
of functions for it in the style of the IP (and TCP and whatever) ones.  Like
you said, it's handy.
