So the select auth would allow the bit of writing required to select/enable a
profile, but not allow changing of other profile properties, which would still
require the write auth.  Correct?

It seems like a new solaris.network.autoconf.wifiadm authorization (alternative
name suggestions welcome!) would work; that auth would be required (instead of
autoconf.write) to create/modify known wlan objects.  Is that sufficient?
