I get this issue reported from time to time.
I get bored of it so I bloated dhcpcd by another 600 bytes on Linux so
that we can get the SSID via the shiny nl80211 interface.

If anyone can test it to ensure I've not broken anything, that would

Thanks for adding it in. I will test in the next day or two.
