Andrian, the fact that libreswan is not available as a plugin to
NetworkManager has nothing to do with any kind of decision. It simply
wasn't done because nobody took the time to package it and make it
available. It *IS* the preferred option for newer NetworkManager
versions, but a lot of things are dependent on having people spend the
time and effort to make it available.

If things are important to you, it is always a good idea to file the bug
reports early and take the steps to make things available, since it's
not feasible for the relatively few developers in Ubuntu to be on top of
everything.

I'm a little surprised myself that network-manager-freeswan isn't
available already (neither is it in Debian from the look of things). It
may be possible to make it available in the supported releases via
backports; someone will need to spend the time to prepare the packages.
