Is your default route through the wired or wireless connection? If your wired connection goes down, should your wireless connection become the defaults route. Or should the wireless connection have preference when it comes to the default route? Do both interfaces provide a route to the Internet? One situation that I would expect to be fairly common is a laptop that uses a wireless connection to the Internet, but gets plugged in when you are back at your desk. You would want the wired connection to take over when it is there, but the wireless connection to take over when you unplug. You would probably want the wireless connection to go down when the wired connection is plugged in.
