That sounds pretty good.
Please just mail the patch to the debian-boot list for review and
discussion.
We should discuss and finalize the patch here before it is filed against the
source package. If we need to involve the wpasupplicant maintainer in that
discussion, we could possibly file the bug now, but then with an explicit
note that it should not be implemented and uploaded before it has been
finalized.
