[Bug 1322536] [NEW] can't make phone forget wifi APs and credentials

 

Public bug reported:

Although it's not something people need frequently, it would be nice if
our phone would allow people to "forget" previously-used networks and
their credentials.  Ideally, it could even be done separately -- forget
the network entirely, or simply remove it from the list of networks to
auto-connect to.

Currently, the phone has no UI to remove a previously-used network from
the cache, or to recall what the password is for an access point.  If an
AP was used once for a special occasion but the user doesn't want the
system to auto-connect to it in the future, there is no way to specify
this.
