Some of us would prefer to avoid being plagued by NM. It
(wpa_supplicant) works just fine, independent of NM and I've just got it
hooked in the bottom of the ifup scripts as they describe doing on the
project site. So far, I haven't found a problem that NM solves for me
and a few that it creates for me. NM and wpa_supplicant should each be
optional and orthogonal to each other.

Personally, I find NM quite troublesome and the named dependency puts me
off immensely. Why the hell do I need to install a domain name server(!)
on a laptop? I'm sticking with ifup/ifdown for the time being.
