Since last week, I made a few modifications to the way "wpa-psk" is handled in 
managed mode. There should now be no requirement for this ambiguous 
wpa-passphrase stuff ;-)

I think thats a huge improvement for the end user, as there is no point of 
confusion as to how to handle the psk when it is in passphrase form, or in 
256-bit hex form. It will always be 'wpa-psk $key', and our scripts will make 
a sound assumption about how to handle the $key value.

Source package is at same location and is ready for upload imho.

I hope for comments, but do not hold my breath.

Thanks, Kel.
