WPA keys written to /etc/network/interfaces as outlined in
/usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.Debian.gz, Section 2. Mode #1:

That mode is pretty popular among debian users, properly documented,
widely advocated and obviously also used by a lot of ubuntu users,
judging from the numbers of duplicates of this bug.
