But it also means to do work twice.

I don't think one of the current devs will work on such a temporary
solution, but will work on a better integration of the opions in nm.

Sorry, we know all the different opions from wpa_supplicant needs
still a lot of work.

Support for config files, wpa_supplicant or even openvpn, is something
Dan and Robert are not happy with. I'm not sure if they accept a patch
for it, but you can try it anyway.
