I also have it on good authority that many of the features lacking

While I don't care about configuration wizards, I do about
initscripts. How are you supposed to configure a server in some
automated manner without plain-old configuration files ?
If i'm not wrong you can still drop plain text files in
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/
Provided you want to do nothing fancy like bridge, vlan and
others stuff that are used by sysadmins.
As I said in my initial email, but was not clear. All of these things
will be supported in a much nicer way in the near future.
Well, even if supported, I do feel much more confident in shell scripts
I can read, understand and easily fix if needed to fit my own needs,
than in a native binary.
How would removing initscripts support helps enhancing networkmanager
integration ?
