The main issue with defaults is how easy it is to change things.
I'd definitely also prefer a simple radio button choice at install time over the option to later change it with YaST.
If people want that, I'm sure people are welcome to contribute that to the YaST team. I'm not interested enough to do it.
And I'm not really capable of doing that. I see my role only in bugreporting and expressing my view of things as a suggestion...
As Josef has already pointed out, my proposal to tie NM to specific roles is feasible today based on the code available in YaST already
Good point.
If people will only accept changing the status quo with a specific UI element toggle, then in my eyes this idea is dead,
If you specifically refer to my post, I wouldn't decline your proposal because of that(*). I'd just point out where the shortcommings might be. And as I'm missing the technical knowledge I don't know how easy or difficult it is to iron those out. It might be bloody easy, and just not done because nobody mentioned it. That's why I mention it.
at least as far as my contributions to the idea and Leap 15 are concerned (I would be surprised if it would be feasible to add something that invasive at this time)
I agree on that, if it should still go to 15, that would be the only way. But then it has something of a 'hot fix', and those have the tendency to never get re-done 'properly'. And I think for good user experience an early choice is important, too. Are really enterprise desktops supposed to use NM? Or changed manually after install?
