nm-editor: Can't make existing configuration a system setting

[Michael Biebl <biebl debian org>]

Hi,

I'm running latest SVN (NM r3633, nm-applet r713).
nm-system-settings is configured to use the keyfile plugin.

When I run the connection-editor from within nm-applet, it presents me a 
list of configured wlan networks ("Auto foo", "Auto bar", ...).
I wanted to make one of those configurations a system setting, so I 
pressed "Edit" and checked the "System setting" checkbox.

Unfortunately, this doesn't make nm-system-settings write a config file 
in /etc/NetworkManager/system_config.

If I instead use "Add", and check the "System setting" right from the 
start, nm-system-settings correctly creates a config file (which works 
properly).

So it seems as if nm-applet doesn't convert an existing 
(user)configuration into a system setting configuration.

Is this a known issue?


Cheers,
Michael


P.S: I was also wondering, if nm-system-settings supports to run 
multiple plugins (e.g. keyfile *and* ifcfg). If so, which one is used to 
write the configuration or is the config written to both?
