There's a project for someone in there I'm sure.

Linux has mii-tool and mii-diag. Whilst we generally don't need all of 
the knobs, sometimes it can be useful to dump and poke PHY registers on 
the MII. src/sys/dev/mii/miibus_if.m contains the newbus interface 
definition for miibus which would be a place to start.
