Public bug reported:
It would be nice to share network / connection settings between
different network-manager frontends such as nm-applet, cli or kde based
ones. Therefore it would make sense to move the place where the settings
are stored out of the gconf-tree to a more common place like e.g.
~/.config/network-manager and store the settings in a common format e.g.
XML-based. To encrypt the wep/wpa etc keys in the config file a symetric
encryption algorithm like AES could be used and the required passphrase
for that algorithm could be stored in the respective session store like
gnome keyring or kwallet. The same mechanism could also be applied for
systemwide connection settings.
** Affects: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu)
