Hi,

Interesting point, I've been thinking about that as well. The problem is that I 
think it's confusing for the user. In the wifi settings pane, the user either 
selects the row or goes to a detail view. In my case the user goes to a 
tableview when he selects the row, but the disclosure button will give a 
(modal) detail view, so the responses are quite the same. Wouldn't that confuse 
them?

Regards,

Remco Poelstra
