The current options that I am aware of:

1. Networkmanager - ties a lot of dependencies and is not quite stable

I've never been able to get it to work, and it didn't really even seem like a good idea, to begin with.

2. wicd - has a ncurses flavour, I'll probably give it a try.

This is what I use. It has some warts, but it's lightweight and works pretty well. I've never used the curses flavor, but there's a pure commandline client which works rather nicely and a fairly lightweight gtk client.

Any other options? I was hoping that someone has already come up with a custom solution that would integrate into dwm/dmenu environment nicely.

The wicd commandline client would integrate with dwm nicely. I wouldn't necessarily recommend a purely custom solution, but I used to do the wpa-supplicant configuration manually and switch between profiles with scripts. It's not that difficult.
