Well for cauldron nm-mdv is not available at all because nm 0.9 is quite 
different than 0.8. From a fast look i guess it should not be too difficult to 
adapt your patch starting from the fedora/redhat plugin .
Regarding a total switch to nm, if i'm not wrong the most problematic part is 
the installer integration.
Maybe it's possible to adapt our draktools to edit/drop files directly in 
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ if we're sticking with the native 
plugin (keyfile).
