Can you please add auto-hotspot to the hamvoip image?

That would make setting up a device in a place that you have not connected
to be a lot easier.

For example:

You take your hamvoip loaded pi with a radio hotspot to a friend's house and
want to connect to their wifi.  You do not have an SD card reader or access
to a computer to change the wpa_suplicant file.

When the device boots up and cannot find a saved access point, it fires up a
hot spot that when you connect it shows the wifi config page and you punch
in your credentials and save and it reboots and connects.

I have this now using the pi-star image and then loading allstarlink but
would prefer to use the hamvoip image as everyone seems to be developing
tools around its abilities.

Thanks,
-Michael N5ZR
