I agree that something above wpa_supplicant should take care of user
preferences and how to behave. I am not sure that this can efficiently
be accomplished without adding _any_ code to wpa_supplicant. How I
understand things a complete separate solution like this would add an
additional communication hop (eg. D-Bus) to things and it will also
require changes to all communication managers to now start talking to
this new entity instead of wpa_supplicant.
