For control, yes.  For configuration, no.  It's assumed that if you're a
user comfortable with configuring things through the command line,
you're able to use and comfortable with your distributions normal
configuration-file-based network configuration methods.  On Fedora,
that's /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*,
Ubuntu/Debian /etc/network/interfaces or NM keyfiles, etc.  NM should be
able to pick up that configuration (if not, it's a bug) and use it.
