+Subject: [PATCH] build: disable libnm-glib support by default
+
+By now nobody should be using this. Keep the code around for a little
+longer just in case anybody still uses this.
+
+The libnm-glib support also serves as an example how do we build two
+different versions of the properties plugin. We'll soon be in a similar
+situation with Gtk 4.0. (sigh.) Just don't drop it yet.
