So when the WLAN isn't available, NM will retry connecting a few times (as long as it's still in the scan list) and then will eventually fail and mark the network as "disabled", and wait for you to manually reconnect. We added a feature in 0.9 to clear that tag after a few minutes. It would be a bit hard to backport to 0.8.x but could be done if somebody had time.
