Yes, but it is confusing to new users. We can still keep the command
line system-config-network, I'm just advocating to hide/remove it from
the menu of the Desktop spin for F13. NM has matured enough that I
think it is about time to accept it as the "one default" in the menu.
+1, I think having both network config utilities in the menus is a bad
idea. Of course, it'd be best to have whichever one is actually
appropriate to the current configuration present, but I don't think
that's possible unless we adopt some messy wrapper approach?
