Mariano,

I do not believe that users such as myself are requesting that NM should
"upgrade" an active connection from B to A when it detects that this is
possible.

The request is to allow users to configure the order in which NM
automatically tries to connect to networks.  If I have a T3 line to my
house behind a wireless router, I don't want NM to choose anything else
when that is in range.

Similarly, if I carry around a portable hotspot device with metered
bandwidth, I don't want NM choose that unless no other known wireless
networks are in range.

I don't want NM to automatically interrupt my Call of Duty session (or
whatever the kids are playing these days) to connect to a different
network if the currently connected network is working just fine.
