I just verified that 28_network_user_connections.patch is still necessary. Without this patch, I need admin privileges to create a new (wireless) connection, unless I'm an administrator (i.e. in group sudo). So we should definitely forward-port this to 3.8 (or 3.12) -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
