Can we talk about pruning out some of the weight from the ISO before we
add another 20MB via NM and dependencies? We'd need to add, roughly:

dbus-glib
glib-networking
gsettings-desktop-schemas
libsoup
nspr
nss
polkit
sqlite
networkmanager

Not really a fan of network manager, but I don't really deal with the
headaches that come with wifi so often. Is nmcli more than just a config
file parser these days?
