Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

In Macos X location manager i can select saved location profile from a popup menu which opens by click on 'Locations' icon. When i click on network-manager icon i see only available wireless network.
It will be great if in the popup menu it was listed saved manual network profiles which is in the 'manual configuration' window.
