We've been had!  This is all just a giant ploy by Microsoft to push EAP 
adoption on WLANs!  Expect to see some turn-key RADIUS solution from 
Microsoft in Windows 10.  Marketing headline:

"Prevent unauthorized access to your corporate WLANs!  For the low price of 
$OH-MY-GOD-YOU-MUST-BE-JOKING!, get Windows Systems Center WLAN Defender 
today!"

Those sly devils... ;)
