Will do, but cannot promise when.

Agreed, I also think it's very important. Maybe Maurice suggestion can 
help to workaround the issue? At least for developers it would be easier 
to get wlan access this way, it maybe even makes debugging this issue a 
little easier.

Another weird observation: in older images the network manager pop-up 
used to work. It stopped working at some time for no apparent reason.
Also, iirc the power pop-up used to not to work (i.e. not accept input) 
in older versions but it works now.
