Can someone more informed than me tell me what the progress on this (in Karmic) 
is? After a googling session, I decided to simply add the relevant contents of 
/usr/share/doc/ifenslave-2.6/examples/ethernet+wifi to /etc/network/interfaces:
========================
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# Following added for bonding
auto bond0
iface bond0 inet dhcp
        bond-slaves eth0 wlan0
        bond-mode 1
        bond-miimon 100
        bond-primary eth0

iface eth0 inet manual

iface wlan0 inet manual
        bond-give-a-chance 10
        wpa-bridge bond0
        wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
        wpa-proto WPA
        wpa-group CCMP
        wpa-ssid ++++
        wpa-psk "+++++++"
===========================
The network manager doesn't touch the enslaved interfaces eth0 and wlan0 (which 
is apparently caused by the iface __ inet manual stanzas for both ifaces, as 
instructed by some google search result), but it doesn't manage the bond0 
interface either, complaining that it cannot determine the driver. Strangely 
enough, both bond and eth0 interfaces do appear in KNetworkManager - clicking 
on them produces
 NetworkManager: <WARN>  impl_manager_activate_connection(): Connection (1) 
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings/0 failed to activate: (2) Device not 
managed by NetworkManager
The wifi is completely off, not associated with the AP plus unable to connect 
to any network with networkmanager.
I didn't reboot, I just did /etc/init.d/networking restart and services 
netowrk-manager restart. Is there something I'm missing? Or is it just plain 
impossible to use bonding and nm at the same time (yet)?

nm should support easy bonding
