Isn't that worth documenting?  When the novice has been told to set
such-and-such in her wpa_supplicant.conf, wouldn't it help her to know
that the name "wpa_supplicant.conf" is just a placeholder and she
needs to look at the -c option passed to wpa_supplicant to find out
what the real file to edit is?
