Dear Maintainer,

Sometimes wifi interfaces require additional work after the install is 
completed before they can be used.
Not having packages such as 'iw' or 'wpa-supplicant' present on the system 
immediately after the install makes this much more difficult, sometimes 
requiring sneakernet with usb drives and packages.debian.org or similar. 
These packages are present in the installer, though, so it would be much better 
if they could be manually selected during the install process. 

Thanks,
sney
