I found one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Setup (if you
don't mind):

There's the relevant part: (PBC stands for Push Button Control/Configuration?)

"PBC Method, in which the user simply has to push a button, either an actual
or virtual one, on both the AP (or a Registrar of the Network) and the new
wireless client device (STA)
.
Support of this model is mandatory for APs and optional for STAs."

And there are already a few potential users:
OpenWRT routers as well as some rt30xx, ar9170 and ar9271 devices.
