Yeah, we probably should do that to reduce confusion. To be completely fair that's an ABI break too, in case somebody is subclassing NMDevice outside of libnm-glib, but that seems incredibly unlikely as there's no way to get libnm-glib to create your subclass instead of the built-in types. Low enough risk of that though, so we should just rename the class function.
