well, wicd won't automatically reconnect, nor will it connect to another network, i do believe that is a wicd problem (at least in my case)

Reconnect was already discussed. You did not enable it. Nothing wrong with WICD. Your title is misleading.

wicd does some strange magic with wpa_supplicant config files every time you connect to a different network. I'm not sure it's related; it is way too complex for me to debug and sometimes not even reproducable (if it works on one pc it does not on the other one, although I'm using the same usb drive and same NIC names).

Of course hijacking every wicd thread is not nice, but I don't recall wicd being nice to me either :P
