My openvpn server pushes a redirect-gateway def1

When used from CLI, openvpn respects it.
When importing configuration to network-manage, I end up with a

ip route show
default via 192.168.0.254 dev wlan0  proto static  metric 600 
10.8.0.1 via 10.8.0.5 dev tun0  proto static  metric 50 
10.8.0.5 dev tun0  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.8.0.6  metric 50 
192.168.0.0/24 dev wlan0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.0.49  metric 600 
192.168.0.254 dev wlan0  proto static  scope link  metric 600 
212.83.179.156 via 192.168.0.254 dev wlan0  proto static  metric 600 

No redirection of gateway. Sinc it works with openvpn only, it is a
bug in the way network-manager handles an openvpn network.

The security implication is that traffic which is meant to be
encrypted is sent in clear.
