Dan, interesting point-of-view, but it fails in real life.

My two main internet connections are a UMTS modem and wifi. NM is great for wifi, and it seems absurd to me that I should change my present "pick the wifi network from NM list" to 1) start NetworkManager, 2) start nm-applet and 3) "pick the wifi network from NM list" everytime I change from UMTS to wifi.

As 0.7 is not out, the mistake is on Firefox by assuming that NM is able to manage all network connections. The fact that it can manage somethings well and others not at all, doesn't mean it's not useful and shouldn't be on. It's just Firefox's assumption that is wrong.

Thanks for a great program.
