As I see it NM is evolving lately, which is good It didn't have
connection editor before.  Now they is just missing <connect> button
along add, edit and delete to  make me happy.

The aim isn't to build a Windows clone.

I didn't suggested this and wireless profile is a general concept
nothing to do with Windows.

Another example you live big building where everybody has an AP. So
your scan list has 50 entries.
Now you have to search by eye all this 50 entries instead of directly
requesting connection to your particular AP.
What I want to see is 3 APs my home, work and favorite coffee house. I
would access scan list only if I cannot find any of these three.

But we should probably move this conversation to different mailing
list.  Second I didn't plan to criticize anyone  I didn't do anything
actively to change it.  I just got little frustrated when testing
switching between APs

Thanks
Tomas
