I agree, the issue is probably fixed by upstream commit 17338069e332bb73e4d9e7332b67b7853fbe83b7; I'll try to get around to packing a few fixes to NM together to upload today.

After a reboot the bridge is brought up, but eth0 isn't attached. First test-case: Created a bridge with network-manager-gnome with the bridge slave physical device is eth0 and remove all other connections. After a reboot the bridge is brought up, but eth0 isn't attached. When I open /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and save it without any modification, eth0 is instantly added to my bridge. Strange! Second test-case: Created a bridge with network-manager-gnome with the bridge slave physical device is eth0. Disable the "autoconnect" of the default wired network. After a reboot the bridge is brought up, but eth0 isn't attached. Instead eth0 is brought up and full configured. After compiling and testing different upstream versions, i could track the problem down to bridge_ignore_without_connections.patch. A network-manager package without this specific patch, brings my bridge up at boot and adds eth0 to the bridge in both test-cases. I've checked the behaviour on my ubuntu 13.10 box with network-manager (0.9.8.0-0ubuntu22) and the trusty version network-manager (0.9.8.8-0ubuntu1) . Till now i couldn't encounter any sideeffects of removing this patch with the bridge created by libvirt.
