Bug Description

Since all info about a wlan is already present in the wlassistant config, wouldn't it be nice to be able to write that info to /etc/network/interfaces to have the computer automatically connect to a default wlan during bootup.

Thanks for your report. Your idea might get more attention and have
the possibility of being implemented if you would submit a
specification for this.

You should first check whether it already exists at the Ubuntu specs
page (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+specs) in Launchpad. If
that is the case, feel free to contact the drafter of that spec about
your comments/suggestions. Otherwise you can start writing a spec
following the steps described in
        https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeatureSpecifications.
