Thank you for filing this bug. I agree that it's worth asking the
desktop team to consider the default set of VPN plugins available by
default from time to time.
> In fact, most major desktop OSes have removed PPTP altogether because
it's insecure...
I'm commenting because I'd like to point out
Desktop team, what do you think, can we add network-manager-openvpn-
gnome to the seeds to give users a tolerable VPN choice?
Thanks

I'd concur and suggest that as so many people use openvpn for 'Private
Internet Access' that would be a far more appropriate out-of-the-box VPN
add-on to ship.
That obviously has implications because it would require adding openvpn
