Probably not, but any idea on how this get pushed to the client scripts?
We'd need to figure that out and handle that in either NM or the openvpn
plugin helper when generating the IP4 config.  BTW, is your objective to
not route all traffic over the VPN?  What's your desired routing
configuration?

There's some issues to be worked through with tun vs. tap devices and
how NM figures out some of the IP configuration, because it seems that
things like netmasks (--ifconfig-push for tun devices doesn't send a
netmask at all, and static-key doesn't allow netmasks to be specified
via the command line) always have to get handled out-of-bad in various
random connect scripts that people have to write all the time.
