But this was a specific, concrete query. Why does NM wait until the user has logged in to start?
That's a wrong assumption. NM doesn't wait until the user has started. It is a system service which starts at boot. nm-applet(GNOME) or Knetworkmanager (KDE) is just a frontend to the system service called NM. It is possible to write a console frontend to do a similar task for the non-desktop case but NM atleast initially was designed to make wireless network access easier. It has grown additional functionality over time however.
