Well, eventually the connection editor could potentially replace the GUI
functionality of s-c-n and ifup/ifdown could be pointed at NM, but we're
not there yet.  There's a few more device types that NM would need to
support (mainly PPPoE/PPPoATM connections, good ISDN, etc) before we
could think about replacing anything.  They are going to be parallel but
mutually exclusive for the time being.  Also there will be some people
who won't ever want to use NM for some setups even though NM could work
for them; but that's fine.
