Comment (by dyqith):

 Follow up, I think what we're all hoping for in the STA case,
 have three types of scanning (forced/manual, active, background) in that
 priority.

 Forced/manual scanning should be able to cancel all other scans (except
 its own type).

 Active scanning is what the STA should be doing in the SCAN_STATE (can be
 cancelled by manual scans).

 Background scanning is when the card "should" be assoc/auth and it jumps
 off channel every so often to build a scan cache of what's out there.
