Title:
  Rank WiFi connections by manual priority & signal strength

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Invalid
Status in NetworkManager:
  Unknown
Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  bugs that impact standard workflows, like connecting to the network:

  The NM applet lists visible/available Wifi hotspots, and automatically
  connects to one, which the user might not like to use.

  The proposed solution is to be able to put an up/down preference
  ordering arrow in the wireless connection editor, next to the list,
  somewhere where the the new/edit/delete buttons are. Also the
  possibility for prioritizing according to actual signal strength/speed
  would be welcome.
