subject: Uthernet programming question

I read that Uthernet uses the IP Dragon module (it's in the manual in
the Thank You section).  IP Dragon in turn uses the Cirrus Logic
CS8900A chip to handle ethernet communication.

After looking at the data sheet, I realized that there is a slim
chance of using Uthernet without a full IP stack and only using MAC
communication to transmit data since there is an on-chip 802.3 handler
and a packet buffer.  Is this even remotely feasible to explore
further?
