I don't understand this phrase. The default NetworkManager.conf comes 
with only these directives:
--------------
[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile

[ifupdown]
managed=false
--------------

So why it shouldn't behave like reported in the man page? That is, if 
the "dhcp" key is missing, "available DHCP clients are looked for in 
this order: dhclient, dhcpcd, internal".

FTR, i also currently use the internal dhcp client without any problem.

Cesare.
