Multiple Wifi SSID
Would it be possible to have multiple SSID's stored - similar to Android or dare I say Openelec.

On boot, it will scan the available Wifi's and connect to the one with the highest signal strength (and credentials stored).

At the moment you can only have one Wifi registered, but I have multiple Wifi's - some of which are active at any one time.

So I have Wifi(A 192.168.0.xxx) which is active all the time, Wifi(B 192.168.1.xxx) which is a clone and Wifi© which is a bridge of Wifi(A) and is closest to the RPi but not always on.

Obviously this will mean a change to Xbian-config ssh and XBMC but I'm sure others would find it useful.

As an added bonus, it could check the link status periodically, and if one link is down, reconnect to the next wifi available.
