Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.9.10.0-2
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
since recently, it appears NetworkManager gained "Bridge" interface
management capability, which unfortunately means that at the very top
of the list, when clicking on the applet, I have:
Bridge (docker0)
docker0
Disconnect
Bridge (virbr0)
virbr0
Disconnect
and when there are any wireless networks, the complete menu doesn't
even fit to the height of the screen and e.g. turning a VPN becomes
a nuisance.
I think there are several problems - first, the screen estate is used
really wastefully, the intermediate "docker0" etc. lines don't serve
any functionality I could discern so they could be omitted, and then
"Disconnect" could be on the same line but I could survive without that. :)
However, second, I'm pretty sure I will *never* want to perform any
operation on my bridge interfaces. They are a black-box to me, managed
by the tools I use (qemu, docker) and I think for less power users their
presence will be even more confusing. I'd prefer them to be not shown
at all, by default. If we must show them, could we at least move them
to the very bottom of the menu?
Thanks!
