Ad-Hoc networks again



I know this has come up in the past but I can't remember if anything was ever decided on it, but I have been traveling a lot lately and while in airports I have mistakenly tried to connect to misconfigured laptops running in ad-hoc mode that has carried over the SSID from somewhere else (This happens to windows users who have their system configured to connect to any available AP).  Was anything ever decided on if Ad-hoc networks were going to be marked or hidden in the UI?

It is not a big deal, just a minor annoyance since I can use iwlist or kismet to see which ones are real access points.

Other than this Network-Manager has been rock solid for me!
