I don't mind if this information is removed from the manual of the

implemented somewhere else. Maybe it can be a list on the web FAQ
somewhere if you don't want it there. I'd also be happy to help
maintain that list of "known working hardware for driver X".
For this kind of thought, the hardware lists could be extracted from
each of the driver man pages, then turned into a "Hardware
Compatibility
List". eg:
1GbE network cards
******************
Model Driver
Intel I340-T2 em
Intel I340-T4 em
Intel I350-T2 em
Intel I350-T4 em
10GbE network cards
*******************
Model Driver
Intel X350-T4 ix
Wifi cards
**********
Model Driver
A-Link WL54H ral
AirLive WN-5000PCI ral
Amigo AWI-926W ral
AMIT WL531P ral
AOpen AOI-831 ral
ASUS WL-130G ral
ASUS WL-130N ral
ASUS WIFI-G-AAY ral
Having this info in one easy-to-search location sounds like it would
be even better for some use cases (eg people looking for hardware by
category, instead of by driver).
This kind of list could probably benefit from a field like "Supported
from", indicating which release of OpenBSD added the support.
eg 5.8, 5.9, etc.
