If network tries to bring up a wireless connection that uses wpa_supplicant, it will fail. I'm asking if anyone ever somehow managed to being up a wireless connection that uses wpa_supplicant when network starts but before wpa_supplicant is started. I can't see how, but just because I can't doesn't mean it's a bug. If nobody can then perhaps it's time for a Bugzilla report. I'm just trying to be thorough.
Well FWIW I can't. I just recently upgraded my laptop from F7 to F8 and my wireless connection needs WPA2 via wpa_supplicant but I also use automounter and ldap. Automounter gets started in between the network and wpa_supplicant which means it always fails. This worked fine on F7 which makes me think that the boot order was changed. Additionally if I ever need to restart the network, i also need to restart wpa_supplicant. Ok I can understand that but restarting wpa_supplicant empties the routing tables for some bizarre reason.
