Another use case is that some of my directories are on cloud storage and mounted at login. With wifi initially unavailable this breaks applications that were expecting configs etc to be present.

WiFi works after loggin it, but it should be working before also, if not, what's the point in having an icon there :) I get the following message: Failed to add/activate connection. - (1) Insufficient privileges. - see image. This worked fine in 14.04. I have noticed this problem in both my desktop (Broadcom WiFi) and Laptop (Intel WiFi) - So it has nothing to be with the chip. Feel free to ask for more info.
