Hi,

I think it's a missing feature.

However, it also seems problematic, because a lot of router
advertisements are received. Running the dispatcher scripts each time,
sounds expensive. But they could be in a separate directory, and NM
would only spawn the dispatcher if there are any scripts there. Like
already done for pre-up and pre-down.

best,
Thomas
