I have personally switched from any network-manager to wicd for quite some 
time now and I am very happy with it. I had also a lot of weird issues with 
network-manager and I really did not appreciate its incompatibility with 
manual tools, e.g. ifconfig/iwconfig/dhclient.

I understand your point that one user's feedback is not enough to remove the 
package for everyone. However, I wonder if, as a distribution, Debian has the 
choice to propose another network-manager for a default KDE install than the 
one shipped upstream?
