I know VPN wasn't a goal for Dapper. Nevertheless, the effort to get it in seems so small to me that I feel it'd be silly not to enable it.

The patch needed to make it work is REALLY simple. In the latest versions of network-manager, the backend code defines a function called nm_system_should_modify_resolv_conf which in the Ubuntu version simply returns FALSE. I've changed it to return TRUE. :-)

Of course VPN connectivity will work without this patch if you can use your VPN connection without altering the DNS settings.. I just can't.
