A couple related questions:

(1) If I want to add

        DPD idle timeout (our side) 0

what do I need to name the key in gconf?  The gconf editor complains
about the parentheses.

(2) Can the obfuscated secret be stored in the keyring?  If so, how?  If
not, how can I get it to be used instead of the group password in the
keyring?

(3) Will the ability to set these features be added to the Edit
Connections dialog in NM?  If I set them by hand, are the recognized and
passed to vpnc by NM-vpnc?

Thanks.
