This is a simple passthrough to the method on the controller. Most users probably won't want it, but when a max7219 is connected to a dot-matrix display and used as a display with embedded_graphics it may make sense to be able to address the display in the smallest possible unit. (For instance, an efficient display updating algorithm can keep the previous state in a framebuffer and only send the commands needed to update those bytes which have changed.)
The alternative of making the connector public seems much more drastic.

Thanks for the library!
