Thanks for letting me take responsibility. As you can see I'm trying to get
advice from the experienced people here :)

If so, I'll try to target FC18, as I think the NetworkManager patch is tiny and
could be implemented easily (it's not even a code change).

So say I want to open a bug report, what should be the topic? Any standard for
the topic?
'NetworkManager-ssh dbus support in NetworkManager' with a target of FC18?
Then should I attach the suggested patch and hope that the maintainer will
include it in the next build of NetworkManager on FC18?

Should I make this bug depend on the bug I'm going to open?

Many thanks Pavel. :)
