I think it would be better to have an independent application to
connect to networkmanager so that its not dependant on E, so that it
can be ported to other platforms, eg. openmoko, mamona, gnome, kde or
whatever.  Even tho NM isnt the 'standard', it still does a great job
and has had alot of work put into it already. Instead of making
competition for it, why not help to make it the standard?

Having said that, an E17 module would be great to have aswell. Maybe
have 2 branches, 1 for a standalone app and another for a module that
has the same features?
