I did a couple installs on real hardware today and came up with a list

usability so far. For the non-anaconda devs reading this, be aware that
the newui code is a work in progress and these items are not an
exhaustive list of things to be done.

* network screen
  - wlan0 configure button doesn't do anything, I couldn't set the
    password to connect to my AP

This is because secrets agent (nm-applet) is missing in the image.
I'll need to add it (it was pretty painful when I tried to do it last
time - various dbus services/support needed, etc.)

  - network details are set when the interface is selected, then goes
    away if the interface is off.

The details is information about configuration in use (status info)
so if the device is off it is empty. To see the settings/configuration stored
for the device (i.e. in ifcfg file) you need to go to "Configuration".

  - with multiple interfaces it feels like the listbox itself should
    have some way to indicate their status. Otherwise you have to step
    through them to see if any are on/connected.

Hmm, something to consider. Now this overall info is only in hub summary.
