Chris, what do you mean with "Network Manager only controls interfaces that are 
set to 'Roaming' in System -> Administration -> Network". ?
Through nm-applet I can either assign multiple fixed ip (through profiles) to 
an interface or enable dhcp to it so I think Network Manager (or nm-applet) 
control network interfaces in either situations.
Or do you mean that the option "enable networking" only refers to "roamin" 
interfaces? If so, I think this behavoir is misleading. 
At this point it should be better:
- to disable  the above option when a user manually assign a fixed ip 

or

- (better solution for me) to consider to improve the functionality of
nm-applet in order to control also fixed ip interfaces
