I think it's reasonable, with the understanding that those differences are
likely to grow.  In particular, as we move to an increasingly sophisticated
userland for networking (e.g., consider how dladm and NWAM profiles will
interact in the future, and how dladm and dlmgmtd already interact),
::dladm will likely need to diverge more from dladm(1M).  Getting userland
right is hard enough without mirrored dcmds in the picture, so I think
we'll need to just accept those limitations when they arise.
