With F-20 as a pure gnome user I still resort to it more than I feel I
should on my laptop with my use of VPN/wifi/3G/tethered/ethernet and
other use cases. As adam points out it's still a dependency of
install. I don't feel that it adds anything in terms of space and it's
as useful tools like grep that I feel shouldn't be used. Shove it into
sundry or somewhere it's not easily found but when stuff in some
random place trying to get a network connection it's often too useful!
