Yes, was checking into that.  /var/lib apparently *must* persist across
reboot, so I believe we should do:

What standard is that based on?  I am not disargeeing it is just that I have never heard this stated before.  I happen to work in an environment that tries to minimize writes and we map all of /var to a tmpfs.  I am not saying this is the norm but was courious what the source was you were basing this on.
 
/var/lib/NetworkManager.state
