Is your NM script available somewhere? Maybe one of these days, I'll move to NM from WPA_supplicant, but the bugs (or missing features if you want) I care about probably still exist.

I have a file named 00-a-machanger in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d

#! /bin/bash
/bin/macchanger -r wlan0 2>&1 > /dev/null

That's all it takes.

$ to_stderr() { echo "$@" >&2; }
$ to_stderr test 2>&1 >/dev/null
test
$ to_stderr test >/dev/null 2>&1
