Right; NM 0.7 and later is definitely _not_ targetted at a "very narrow niche". It's targeted at hopefully >= 75% of the use-cases of Fedora. Perhaps this weekend (unless I'm still fixing bugs with NM in general) I'll integrate the work Soren did for a system config service which will allow connections to be brought up before you log in. That's the only real blocker to using NM in a GUI-less server-type environment if you like. Other than that, most of the bits for static IP support are in (applet bits to follow), the options to lock things like 802.3 duplex, speed, and other stuff are in-progress by Tambet, and most of the wireless options work. By the holidays, I expect we can flip NM on by default in Rawhide, even if it's not default in F8.
