NM, prior to 0.9, had system-wide and user-specific connections. Those
user-specific configurations were replaced in 0.9 by system-wide
configurations with permissions. The system-wide connections are
always (even prior to 0.9) in /etc as you'd expect.

I use NM with system-wide WiFi connections only. I create the system
wide configurations through a collection of scripts I've assembled
(since the other NM command line clients were either broken at the
time I tried them or not powerful enough) and NM automagically picks
the right connections for me when I'm on the road.

Regards,
