Excellent! I put a summary of what I think should be done here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=601372 Does the stuff in Comment #3 sound doable? You don't have to do everything at the start but we can do it incrementally. Like you don't need to populate the "user-id" and "user-name" fields yet, since we need to do a bit more internally to NM to store that information in the NMActRequest structure (by pulling the uid off the D-Bus request to start the connection). Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
