As cb400f has just mentioned to me on IRC, I think listing NM settings in YaST is problematic. New users seem to think that they can configure NM in yast, and hence have to enter IE ESSID/WEP keys etc for wireless cards, which isn't really true at all :/
Not for the laptop single user but, it's essential if you are using NM on anything else and you want the system to bring up NM networking before you log in. This is a clearly identified user requirement for current NM (and will shortly be implemented by reading the settings made in YaSt and providing these to the daemon using a policy daemon over the NMInfo dbus service). What would be nice would be if the admin could add NM settings in YaST and then be clearly be presented with a choice to store these as system settings, default for all users, or apply them to a subset of users - what do you think of that?
