This is going to be a feature of the next feature release. The current
master branch already allows you to tick the boxes "Prefill" and
"Verify" in the admin side. (see attached)

Note that we have varying amounts of control over the supplicants on
OSes. For Windows, it's our own UI and we can implement this, same for
Linux and Android, but on ChromeOS and all Apple devices this is not
possible.

Please don't hold your breath - the next version is still maybe half a
year out...

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
