Hi Dan,

it has taken some time for me because I would like to clearify a new
problem
that came up with the latest master from git. I compiled the sources and
installed them on my test system. Now it is not longer possible to bring
up any dhcp based connection:

...
NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0) Stage 3 of 5 (IP Configure
Start) scheduled.
NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure)
complete.
NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0) Stage 3 of 5 (IP Configure
Start) started...
NetworkManager: <info>  (eth0): device state change: 5 -> 7 (reason 0)
NetworkManager: Activation (eth0) Beginning DHCPv4 transaction (timeout in
45 seconds)
NetworkManager: <info>  dhclient started with pid 2478

                [-sf script-file] [interface]

but at the end I tested against the main issue. This looks like to be
resolved.
So it is now possible to bring up dun based bt connections directly.

Thank you!

It's still open that system wide connections for BT cannot be configured
with nm-connection-editor.
Also when creating them directly in the filesystem they are ignored.
