Bug Description
This might not be the place for this bug, please reassign as appropriate.
I was only able to reproduce this on mako/rtm, krillin/vivid seems to behave better (but I do remember the same issue there).
Steps:
* connect to a password-protected WiFi network
* go out of range
* make sure a GSM connection is established
* go back in the WiFi range
Expected:
* phone connects to the known WiFi automatically
Current:
* phone does not connect to WiFi
Please find attached network-

@Michael
I just tested this with mako/RTM #17, and this seems to be working fairly well for me.
My test consisted of walking downstairs to the first floor of my building and then walking down a hallway till the phone eventually disconnected from WiFi, I then took the elevator back upstairs and as I entered my loft, the phone re-connected to my home access point.
I've run through this scenario at least twice today, as I tried to reproduce bug #1438402, which describes a problem where WiFi never disconnects from a home AP.
