Title:
  network-manager does not recognize bluetooth PAN interfaces (bnep0)

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When bluetooth network is created by bluez, it creates bnep0 network
  interface.

  That interface is ignored by Network Manager (no auto dhcp, not in the
  list, not in the creation options). Interfaces can be configurated
  manually (sudo dhclient bnep0), but NM ignores it completely.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) Pair xubuntu with android device (in my case Samsung S3)
  2) Initiate network access (network access point) on that device

  Expected behavior:
  NM or silently initialize interface, or just show it as option to initialize network

  Actual behavior:
  complete ignorance.
