NMConnection is an interface, which is implemented by the types NMSimpleConnection (libnm-core), NMSettingsConnection (src) and NMRemoteConnection (libnm). NMSettingsConnection does a lot of things already: 1) it "is-a" NMDBusObject and exports the API of a connection profile on D-Bus 2) it interacts with NMSettings and contains functionality for tracking the profiles. 3) it is the base-class of types like NMSKeyfileConnection and NMIfcfgConnection. These handle how the profile is persisted on disk. 4) it implements NMConnection interface, to itself track the settings of the profile. 3) and 4) would be better implemented via delegation than inheritance. Address 4) and don't let NMSettingsConnection implemente the NMConnection interface. Instead, a settings-connection references now a NMSimpleConnection instance, to which it delegates for keeping the actual profiles. Advantages: ...
