This was reported last year, and a just-entered comment states NM will
(at least) fully support PPP -- which is an advance. Currently, even if
PPP is driven by nm-applet (or knetworkmanager), NM will still not find
the PPP up, and report the whole system as offline.

On this bug: lets suppose, for the sake of argument, that I have a wired
and a wireless interface, and the wired is set to hotplug (so that if
nothing is plugged, it is not used).

Now, NM should still fully support a hot-pluggable interface, and
recognise it when it is driven on. Not supporting it seems sort of
silly.
