Interesting.  I thought that there was a standard in the process of
being ratified where some of the Cisco LEAP extensions were going to be
built into an 802.11 security extension which I though was X.  I didn't
research it, rather I took the word from the guy who told me as gospel.
I either misunderstood or he doesn't know what he's talking about.  I'd
like to think the former is more likely than the latter.
