I am also heavily interested in running "named" disposable VMs as sys-VMs with one enhancement, that I am able to store the Wifi-Credentials in a Vault-VM and that I can "push" the credentials into the sys-net VM when launching it (maybe by some custom scripts which use qvm-run --pass-io from dom0 to copy data from Vault-VM to the Sys-Net-VM).

As you may already know, I created a Qubes service that provides most of the benefits of a dispVM by removing, hash checking, repopulating or whitelisting the contents of a VM's private volume:

https://github.com/tasket/Qubes-VM-hardening

It comes with a default that preserves Network Manager connection info for sys-net. The default also lets most /home files remain, but the executable parts are locked down with the immutable flag. This default can be changed to remove and/or repopulate the entire /home contents (along with everything else in /rw).

Settings can be universal or for each individual VM, which allows layered customizations to be made without the need to create additional templates. (All settings are erased in the VM instance before startup is completed.)

All of this happens immediately before Qubes first mounts the /rw private volume at startup.
