Trying Cinnamon next version (with switch to libnm) on Stretch was find that it crash for this "small" upstream fix missed:
libnm/client: proxy *_enabled and metered properties to the right object - https://github.com/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/c81005b84650b8e6d709ce6afda96fb55987cdb8
Actually I'm not know other Stretch application using libnm that have/risk this issue
Other details here: https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/pull/6993
This is for example already applied to Fedora 26 without issue FWIK: https://src.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/NetworkManager.git/commit/?h=f26&id=58e92b645a0d0b8f0b1e04116d76752e8d780bbd
I reported this because is a important bug using libnm and can be fixed with a small patch, in case there was any possibility of a new build (1.6.2-3+deb9u1).
Thanks for any reply and sorry for my bad english.
