I'm happily running ifplugd. What it does is it monitors your network
adapters, and if a network is available (cable plugged in,
authentication succeeded), it does an ifup for that interface. I use it
with wpasupplicant, but I guess that if you only use WEP, there's no
need to do that.
So, what I would do is first setup /etc/network/interfaces such that you
can ifup either interface. If that works, meaning that everything is
configured correctly, you install ifplugd and let it manage the
interfaces.
If you encounter any problems, let us know!
