No, I don't really agree. The correct solution to this is going to take
quite a bit of engineering, coming right on the heels of WPA support
which itself is a major code churn and breaks some wireless drivers
because they don't work with wpa_supplicant. Do you want to push FC5
out another month or two just for NetworkManager and a use-case that's
of dubious _immediate_ importance?
Yes, we need to have system-wide configuration, nobody disagrees. We
all just disagree on how immediate the need is.
