Suppose a user does not specify a particular profile, does
it mean that the change will be applied to all profiles?
Or does it mean that the service is now "outside" the control
of any profile? I ask because it is still not clear to me
how things work. In the current draft, network services
are enabled/disabled by the NWAM framework explicitly at the
"right" time. If enabling a service manually means that the
service is now outside the control of any profile, that service
may not be started at the "right" time by NWAM. If enabling/
disabling a network service without specifying a particular
profile just means that the change is applied to all network
profiles, I guess it should be fine.
