By default, when you connect to a Wifi network, Nickel will try and kill it after a minute or two, unless you prevent it.
There is a class called
WirelessWatchdogwhich seems responsible for watching for Wifi to connect, and then (attempt) to kill it after a set time. After taking a look at the web browser controller class, I discovered how it keeps Wifi active while the browser is open. Basically the WirelessWatchdog emits a signal requesting permission to kill wifi. If an attached slot denies permission, it will not kill the Wifi.
