Yup. The people commenting on it seemed happy, but I emailed the guy 
directly and he didn't seem to enthusiastic about it now, but again, he 
was using a USB modem and not a built-in Mini PCI-e device like mine.

I personally tried applying the patch to the latest network-manager in 
Ubuntu a couple a days ago, but it never compiled. I'm guessing the code 
has changed a bit since the patch was written. (I think it was the 
NMDeviceType thing that didn't work.)

If this actually is what it takes, then I hope someone is willing to 
have a look at it and eventually push it upstream :-)
