I would hope you haven't written this off completely.  I'd very much like to use
NM to control my PPP-over-PCS configuration.  Right now I have to manually
ifup/ifdown the interface; it would be nice if it were tied into NM so I could
ifup/ifdown from NM instead of manually.

I don't care about carrier or anything else.  I can about being able to start
and stop the network from a central place.
