I want to make sure I'm not missing something before I file an

to be able to enable/disable wireless (or wired, for that matter) networking

functionality, but it doesn't appear to actually have it at this point.
While I can see a use for this functionality in general...
Specifically, my laptop generates a custom Sony ACPI button event
when the
wireless antenna is switched on or off -- I'd like to automatically enable
or disable wireless networking correspondingly. Is there an easy way to do
this that I'm just not seeing? Thanks.
The right fix for this is for the kernel to hook the ACPI event properly
into generating a kill switch event rather than piling on hacks ;)
