Hmmm..... Even with static IPs we probably don't want to use the distro 
specific config files. Instead we'd have 
/etc/NetworkManager/whatever.xml. However, it looks like it would make 
sense to use the g-s-t backends to do initial migration between the 
distro specific settings and the standard NM config.
