Magnus,

Thanks for the patch! Unfortunately, this issue is still being discussed
upstream (see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603575). I'd go
on that aspect with the reporter for that bug and say that the best in
all cases is to calculate an MTU (and MSS) from the route to the
gateway, unless there is a value specified by the server. A pretty
generic solution would be best as well, since this doesn't only affect
the openvpn plugin.

Unless you have a reason to believe it really should be available
anyway? I just think it's something that would be best to have as
automated as possible and not subject users to wondering "what is this
fragmentation thing? what do I set there?"

In any case, please do post your patch (cleaned up to exclude the
changelog parts) on the above bug if possible, just in case :)
