yes, such a feature is part of the "PHY" layer modeling. In wifi, this modeling
is performed by the WifiPhy subclasses. The only such subclass (for now) is
YansWifiPhy and this PHY model has nothing to do with a ReceiveErrorModel
class. 

I would be fine with another WifiPhy subclass which performs packet error
modeling based on a ReceiveErrorModel class.

Another way to integrate this in the current YansWifiPhy model would be to
implement a subclass of the ErrorRateModel which uses a ReceiveErrorModel to
return either 0 or 1.

Shall we not just close this bug as INVALID since I doubt anyone will ever do
any work to make _every_ NetDevice subclass use an ErrorModel subclass.

I will take it.  I want to add this to SimpleNetDevice.  Changed title to
reflect.
