same issue for me. Wicd is the only alternative, but it is out of development, and not always compatible.

Depending on the room I'm in the access point with the strongest signal is not the same. What you expected to happen: Network Manager should try to connect to the stored wifi network with the strongest signal and not follow the list blindly. What happened instead: When I put my laptop on sleep and go to another office, Network Manager tries to connect to the first network that was added instead of the one with the strongest signal. --- Maybe one could check how Android manages Wifi connection and copy its code (it's a linux OS), because Android seems to connect to the strongest signal instead.
