How do you feel about instructing the user to use wpa_passphrase to format it for them? I put an example in networking(7). I feel it is faster and less error prone.

That is okay, but I would first correct the usage in networking(7) to read:

# wpa_passphrase "myssid" "mypassphrase" >> /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

English in change LGTM.
