Nope.  Didn't work for me. Doesn't work that way in F10 either.  Again,
I hate to beat a dead horse, but NM is great, in theory.  But only so.
The current implementation is just badly conceived and I hate being
forced to deal with it.  Linux was all about choice at one time. I don't
like getting crap like NM shoved down my throat.

Which is why I run Gentoo now on my personal systems.
