I'm working on 3 separate patches:
1) remove extcap ifdefs
2) prevent extcap loading based on env variable (during the review process
we can decide whether to keep this or not)
3) prevent extcap loading based on pref.

For the last one I'm just missing how to properly refresh the interface
list. I've called wsApp->refreshLocalInterfaces() but the list doesn't get
refreshed. Can you give it a look?
Thanks.
Dario.
