As Jonas points out, once the scan starts it cannot be stopped. But I do
not see this as an issue: that is done in the background, and results
could be collected later. In fact, there is a DBus call in ofono named
GetOperators() that will show the result of the last scan.

Due to this behaviour, I think it makes sense to have a button to
manually start a scan of the spectrum.

There is also a peculiarity in ofono interface that can condition GUI.
You can either select to register to the "default" network (that is,
automatically) or to a given network (which is the equivalent to
manually). What I mean is that showing options Automatically/Manually
maybe does not make much sense: it could be more a selection like:

* Automatic
* Network 1
* Network 2
...
* Network N
- Button for refreshing networks

I think this is similar to what @mpt wants, anyway.
