I agree that the documentation is more or less non-existent, and what
little there is verges on parody, eg the man entry which tells you NM

I think the OP's complaint is somewhat bizarre. Basically, he/she is
saying NM works too well.

I beg to differ. My newest laptop detects three wireless
addresses to connect to as soon as it's booted, and goes on detecting
them; fortunately, one is mine and the other two are (at least nominally)
secured. This is in a neighborhood with only single-family houses (in a
town that has a big engineering school). In an apartment building, it
would probably be a lot more.

Either I've completely misunderstood (as is of course quite
possible) -- or it's easy to imagine circumstances where you might care
intensely which connection you used.
