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!
Likewise - there is no way to specify DNS search suffix in the Network capplet, which means that I have to use nm-c-e to edit all my work-related network connection profiles.
Keeping it installed by default would be nice. Of course, ideally you'd be able to trigger it from within the Network capplet itself (with an "Advanced" button maybe). Or not install it by default, the situation gnome-tweak-tool finds itself in, but please don't hide it from the GNOME menus.
