This is provided by the nm-system-settings service.  You'll want to grab
the NM from F-10 updates-testing:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F10/FEDORA-2009-3686

and after a reboot, you should be able to use the connection editor to
mark your wifi connections as "Available to all users", which means they
will be available before login.
