That's not true. MOST hdparm functionality is supported in libata.
Only a very few things are not supported, including -d and -X,
for reasons already pointed out.

Nearly everything else works.

Agreed, I've already had problems typing faster than I think, twice, as as I hit ENTER saying "wait, that's a SCSI device" and then "wow, it worked anyway!" Nice job on the whole, but setting transfer modes is desirable, still.
