Yes I was unclear; the user interaction is onver only, just to make
sure that the desired network is duly marked as enabled when next time
(and thereafter) wpa_applicant starts. Just have the interface marked
as "auto" in /etc/network/interfaces, and the network enabled (i.e.
not disabled) in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf; and that
should make Bob your uncle.
