Sure. Clicking on "Connected" would be fine. If possible, having it
displayed on a second, below "Connected" without having to click, and in
smaller type would be ok, too, but I'm guessing that's not as easy to code
or might cause problems with the layout (spacing).

You can use udev to map wlan0 to the new device name so that netman would work.
I was thinking about a configuration file for the backend so that it

set up by the user. I was thinking about this format:

To connect automatically on boot you only need to pass --auto-conn

connects as soon as I log into XFCE4. Configure your desktop or window

So, the command should be like this:
