OK, so both issues (no mesh and no Disconnect option) are only a single
one..
Just found trac #8133 which deals with the disappearing msh0 device.
Seems to be an issue with a mismatch between driver versions.
Hope it is solved soon.
From an end-user point of view I want to be able to disconnect
(=disassociate) from
an unwanted AP. Now you cannot do this in an obvious way.
