Re-enabling NetworkManager requires the root password. If someone can
turn it back on with 'chkconfig' or another service management tool,
they can also re-install it.

File a bug with the "initscripts" component. That setting *should* be
documented in /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt, but isn't.
