OK I can wait a bit.
Also noticed that (now that I have a connection defined) it doesn't
connect automatically when NM/nm-applet starts (e.g., when I log in). I
have to pull down the menu and select it. My F7 machine NM-0.6.5
connects to the most recently used WAP in range when it starts.
Plus I ran into some quirks with keyrings, but that's another topic.
Auto connecting is not working for me either. Even at home where there
is only one unencrypted choice.
