Description Bastien Nocera 2015-04-07 12:17:01 UTC 
On a workstation, we shouldn't need to support bridge devices, or bond devices.

The only reason we would have wanted those is for feature parity with nm-connection-editor, not something I would strive for, and to allow VMs getting online (which should really be configured through a single toggle in the VM UI[1]).

[1]: And could be enabled by this kernel feature:
