Why so?  I’d see such a thing as a lovely features, and you pretty much
loose the benefit of it being default if you have to find out you need
to activate.  On the other hand it would be so neat to put a sim card in
a computer that happens to have a free-software supported wwan card and
get stuff just working!

I mean, it’s what most mobile phones do, right?

Could it at least be done so more user-friendly distribution (such as
Debian, by opposition with, say, Parabola, Gentoo, etc.) makes this a
default, through configuration files (and not only GUI), so uncaring
user would benefit it neitherless?
