Yes, the question should be asked for all installs, but with a low priority. I can't think of a criterion on which to decide whether to ask it or not and I also don't believe that having such criterion would be useful. > I still do not understand "For most cases . . .".

What I wanted to say by "For most cases" is that I believe that having the _default_ to not write wireless config in /e/n/i is good, and this would work for most installs (but obviously not for the case you mentioned). I wasn't thinking of asking the questions is "some cases" and not in others.
