In general this will not be possible. Since connections are user-specific
settings certificates are user-specific, too. We authenticate users, not
machines. And users do not have write permission in /etc/openvpn anyway. And
since NM is the gateway from the user to the system space for networking stuff
this makes sense. There may be the need then to communicate certificates through
in NM in the worst case. For now I think the policy should allow openvpn to read
the certificates from the user's home until we found a better solution.
