Hey Kevin,

I'm curious - why?  I've found these messages to be very useful when
troubleshooting or auditing remote connection attempts.  If you're
looking at the logs and only want to see messages from a specific
service, you can simply filter based on your needs at the time, ie
`journalctl --since today --unit NetworkManager`.
