wicd is a network manager replacement. It works (more or less) the same way NM 
works: with a deaomon which does the lower level operations, and several GUIs 
(a GTK version, and a ncurses version).

I don't want to change the subject, as I"m afraid to steer the debate from the 
original problem (as you mentioned). I am just pointing that for the NM 
problem, there is another solution which tries to solve more or less the same 
problem. It's just "different". 

You know, GTK vs. Qt argument.
