I (personally) think this is something that should be left to
NetworkManager. Its the auto wifi network tool supported in Fedora. If
your someone who goes through the pain of manually configuring wifi to
use the network scripts you should be able to configure the location
too. Or at the very least make it part of the system-config-network
stuff with an option in the GUI and then set it in the ifcfg-wlanX
file and make it part of the ifup script that brings up the wireless.
Then it doesn't impact the general startup.
