Yes, this will be easier in the next version. With the rewritten networking.py (which is now split into networking.py and wnettools.py) it's already simpler to change the hardcoded dhclient command, since it only has to be done in one place now. But I'd like to either have wicd check for the existence of a preset list of popular dhcp clients and then pick which one to use, or provide some way of having the user specify the command and arguments to use. Or maybe a combination of the two where wicd tries to pick one a client from a preset list, and if it can't find one then provide a way for the user to specify it manually.
