NetworkManager autoconnects to persistent wireless networks
This was not the case in Squeeze; all persistent wireless networks in range were only listed, not auto connected to. The “Connect automatically” option wasn’t saved properly, making it always act as if disabled (well, only after rebooting Tails, not during the session it was added). While this actually is a bug, this behaviour is desirable (except the discrepancy with rebooting). We wanted to consider it a feature but ended up calling it a known issue. Now we may want to revisit this.
Do we want to always disable “Connect automatically” and remove the check box (by patching `nm-applet`) or similar, and if so, is it blocking Tails 1.1? In any case the known issue should be removed.
