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
