If the task is to deal with complicated dhcp and wireless configurations,
multiple and complicated vpn configurations and notify the
console/desktop user about all of these things (which a lot of laptops
fall into that category) then NM is extremely useful and I'd argue
necessary for a convenient computing experience.
But there's a cost to maintaining two systems that are entirely
divergent and with little sharing/modularity. I don't see the value of
"don't run a daemon" as outweighing the cost of "keep another system
maintained".
So... have an 'exit after initial configuration' option for NM?
