From my point of view a suspend/resume should automatically connect

This will be easy to do; automatically connect to an available
installed wifi after suspend/reboot.
The only thing i'd not like to do is to scan the active wifis at
every x seconds throughout all the
user's session.
Reconnect to the last connected wifi would be perfect! No new
scanning needed.

Try to connect to a concrete wifi without the conviction about its
existence? Mmm..., sorry but it makes little sense...
There's nothing bad in failing. Clients do retry their last good
TCP connections when they wake up, only to find out the routing and
local IP address are no longer valid or available because the laptop
moved physically away from the old network. Like they are let fail
their connections gracefully, so reconnecting to the last known good
WiFi AP can be allowed to fail: if it's lucky, it's going to reconnect
to the last AP really fast, otherwise it's going to have to rescan the
waves in search of some known AP.
Unless there are security concerns in doing this, I would like my
laptop to behave like this.

I have an idea: to save the list of all the neighbors for each saved
wifi. So, the scanner would be activated only in case of some detection
because of the chance of finding.
Cheers,
Aitor.
