I think the same. Vendors don’t care about common location to store defaults, 
this can be changed in very unusual ways. My patch for mac80211.sh just add 
possibility to override default values for wlan. If specific OpenWrt build 
contains /etc/factory_80211, then it will be processed and used, otherwise 
radio will be off, ssid = OpenWrt, no encryption, just like as of today.

How to put this configuration into device? This is not a question for OpenWrt 
developers, but for people, who build customized OpenWrt firmware. It’s 
definitely better to customise build using scripts/configurations in /etc, than 
changing /lib/wifi/mac80211.sh, as I saw in some builds.
