I'm sorry, but by the time I have clicked through the GUI to do
that I have configured the interface via ip, did what I wanted to
do and unconfigured the interface again.

I uncheck "Enable networking" in nm-applet before doing that,
and for me that makes NM keep it's grubby paws off my manually
configured interface, so I'm not complaining.
