It is on TODO?
Actually my personal plans are that managed=true mode goes away completely. The ifupdown plugin would be vastly simplified. All it would do is look in /etc/network/interfaces which devices are configured there, and mark those as unmanaged in NM. I've come to the conclusion that trying to parse the /e/n/i configuration and generating connections from that is more confusing and brittle in actual use.
