In fact I don't understand reapply anymore :

- it doesn't affect the profile
- a nmcli device modify <device> (802-3-ethernet.mtu for instance) seems 
to immediatly (re)apply the change I'm doing to the active profile.

So, I don't understand anymore when I'm supposed to issue a nmcli device 
<device> reapply ?

Thank you
