In general, I like the idea of depending on NM for the network
setup/editing/etc. 

On the page where we now launch the NM editor we probably need a summary
of what's been activated that also shows what will happen on boot. A
listing of all the possible devices will just be a duplication of the
network manager stuff.

Maybe a short 'what to do here' blurb in place of the list when nothing
has been setup.

I don't think we need to add a panel, that's going to take away from the
flow of anaconda and possibly introduce lots of asynchronous places for
users to go and change things unexpectedly (ala liveCD style).
