For what it's worth, I'm running Vista and Windows 7 here (on separate laptops), and each has a "Manage Wireless Networks" item, rather than "View Wireless Networks". Also each has a vastly superior manufacturer-provided interface: "Dell Wireless WLAN Card Utility" and (untitled custom-chromed window, accessed via "Lenovo's Internet Connection" link from "Network and Sharing Center").
On my Dell/Vista box, Process Explorer shows the Microsoft "Manage Wireless Networks" dialog as being a variant of Windows Explorer (with specific command-line arguments passed to have it display its contents):
"C:\Windows\explorer.exe" /e,/root,::{21ec2020-3aea-1069-a2dd-08002b30309d}\::{1FA9085F-25A2-489B-85D4-86326EEDCD87}
I fear those weird long strings are being fetched from the registry, good luck with that! Or maybe, as you suggested, there's a short-cut or wrapper program somewhere that's easier to invoke.
