There is no such key at this time. This is because it's typically more robust to indicate which configurations should *not* get the default route than to indicate that one particular configuration should always get it, because... For example, if your wlan0 is not connected, then the configuration does not apply, and any other configuration which is not marked never-default will receive the default route. This is likely not what you intend. If wlan0 does not exist (device removed, driver removed, or device physically changed) then the configuration will not apply, and any other configuration can receive the default route. What is your specific use-case here? Do you want all configurations except wlan0 banned from receiving the default route, even when wlan0 is missing or disconnected? Do you create/remove configurations often in this setup?
