As I've just filed bug 155723 - "ndiswrapper module missing" it would be difficult for NetworkManager to support ndiswrapper. Let's wait for the ndiswrapper fix first.
Please note bug #155285
The package you want is ndiswrapper-kmp-<flavour> where <flavour> is the type of kernel you have (smp in my case).
And NetworkManager supports whatever network devices the kernel does, so all you need to do is setup the NDIS driver in ndiswrapper and you're away.
Ok, this isn't making much sense to me now. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here.
I thought *proprietary* drivers were being removed, and issued as kmp packages. Now, open source, GPL'd software that gets linked to proprietary software is removed as well?

Exactly, this you can read in bug 155723. Seems some very experienced lawyer went into open source programming here ;-) FMF
