I'm not sure of the big picture myself, but I think you have interface 
up/down scripts in wpa_supplicant?  Additionally I think there are 
up/down script opportunities via dhcpcd - it would appear that Roy is 
going down the direction of dhcpcd becoming the driving net configurator 
so I should imagine this is a safe bet.  You appear to be able to stash 
a bunch of config per interface and per SSID in /etc/dhcpcd.conf

Would be interested to hear how you really solve this though...

Good luck
