In connman I would like to be able to get a list of all wireless services that have been previously connected, whether or not they are currently in range, and be able to optionally remove or 'forget' that service. I've tried to manually remove the the directory /var/lib/connman/wifi_xxxxxxxx but when I shutdown and restart my system, that service and related information has been restored. How, at this point can I do this?

There were a couple of attempts to add a D-Bus interface to expose the
known services and allow them to be removed. I gave some feedback
on those patches but never got any new version. I didn't find the latest
attempt, but IIRC it was based on this one here:

Thank you so much for this information. Is there any plan to take this up again? Is it something that would be better for me to take up, or for your group? Currently the only work around I can think of is to shutdown connman, remove the files, then restart connman. This is really not the option I was hoping for.

The last attempt (Bosch?) was almost there. As I said there were a
couple of small issues left, but unfortunately, there was never a
followup and I forgot after a while.
I searched again for the last attempt, I only found these posts:

If you want to work on, please go ahead. It's not that difficult.

Yes, that's a show stopper.
