Topic: Support for WiFi QR codes.

IIRC the particular implementation in the linked post was not met with approval. But I forget the reason, ~~and can’t find a reference right now.~~

[EDIT] My - if you will - rebuttal to the arguments presented way back when:

Original Question: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/community-meeting-on-irc-13…th-april-2023/15242/2?u=nephros Answer/Discussion in the Meeting Log: https://irclogs.sailfishos.org/meetings/sailfishos-meeting/2023/sailfishos-meeting.2023-04-13-07.00.log.html >07:05:31 <ViGe> And the answer: 07:05:34 <ViGe> #info <Jolla> The wifi handler looks like a nice start, but on the details this wouldn’t be necessarily how we’d like this implemented. 07:05:38 <ViGe> #info <Jolla> 1) not sure should the handling be in the settings app (not nice acumulating more and more to the d-bus api of the generic settings framework) or rather the connection dialog, 07:05:43 <ViGe> #info <Jolla> 2) the patch doesn’t enable the QR code network adding from anywhere (suppose that’s called from third party app then), 07:05:46 <ViGe> #info <Jolla> 3) the QR code shouldn’t be included in the details of network addition requests, rather the caller should consume QR code details and proceed with plain network properties.
