I would also love to know how to make NM connect system wide for a wireless
connection - I tried this on one laptop following some advice on editing the
config files to add an additional parameter - 

The advice I saw was:
"Edit /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf, and add ",keyfile" to
the end of the "plugins=" line.  Then 'killall -TERM
nm-system-settings', and you should be able to make system-wide
connections in the connection editor just by checking the "Make
available to all users" checkbox."

But it did not work.....

Anyone know how to really make it work in a fully up to date F10 system?
Here I am thinking of a wireless connection to an AP using WPA2...
