<div>It's actually per network, not per device, so it only forgets present networks. Can you explain why we need to be able to forget non-present ones?<br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

pass them, I see no major problem with removing "Discard...".<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It seems like these cases would be covered by the patch I linked. <br></div></div></div></div>
