One thing that would also be nice would be to add into the LuCI GUI to have
similar functionality as is currently provided in X-WRT that shows the
signal strength and other useful information by sending a few AT commands
via /dev/usb.

The scripts that is used to display the card info in x-wrt can be found at:
http://code.google.com/p/x-wrt/source/browse/trunk/package/webif/files/www/cgi-bin/webif/status-wwaninfo.sh
and
http://code.google.com/p/x-wrt/source/browse/trunk/package/webif/files/usr/lib/webif/comgt.webif

And a nice little country auto-apn configurator as well in:
http://code.google.com/p/x-wrt/source/browse/trunk/package/webif/files/www/cgi-bin/webif/network.sh
parsing in this CSV.
