A device unmanaged due to this option is strictly
unmanaged and cannot be overruled by using the API like
<command>nmcli device set $IFNAME managed yes</command>.
Also, a device that is unmanaged for other reasons, like
an udev rule, cannot be made managed with this option (e.g. by
using an <literal>except:</literal> specifier).
These two points make it different from the <literal>device*.managed</literal>
option which for that reason may be a better choice.
