Yeah... well I guess this makes NM being unusable for Debian... I've commented on this already before...
It's a wrong decision trying to replace the actual native network configuration tools with something which is clearly not powerful and bug-free enough to do so... Removing support for managed mode (which should be actually the default) is probably just another step that will bring conflicts between the native networking tools (ifupdown, vpnc, strongswan, etc.), their configurations, their users,... and the NM fraction.
