That's good news -- I didn't want to volunteer you for more work.
Is this something we will see in F11? In any case, I'm inclined to
think an init script way to set the default still makes sense...?
An initscript to change it only makes sense if you enjoy slowing down
boot ;-) If NetworkManager is going to support setting it, then we
should let NetworkManager set it -- if someone isn't using
NetworkManager and is using wicd or their own homegrown scripts, then
they can implement it there as well
