When user clicks on an access point icon, it is added to a list of
connections, which is saved in a file and also passed to NetworkManager,
and as a result the connection is attempted.

When the laptop starts up, the list of connections is read, then sent to
NetworkManager, and as a result the connection is attempted again.

You can then find where these classes and methods are used in other
code, such as meshbox.py.

http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/spec.html is
particularly useful in comprehending the negotiation between network.py
in Sugar and NetworkManager in Fedora.
