I could see arguments for "we want to do the ifconfig/route setup in
an --up script" - for example to do VRF/NetNS stuff that OpenVPN can not
do itself.  So for these scenarios having the capability around would
be useful (= thus, try-and-warn)...

Different scenario, same options.  We don't always know what users want.

Sending to the debian bug report referenced upthread and asking them
to test might be an option here.  Or ask David.

I do not use NM either.
