+OK, in the spirit of Anne's original question, can you tell us exactly what the keyfile plugin is and does, and how to use it ? I'll volunteer to do a fresh install and test it.
+

The keyfile plugin as said earlier is the default & native plugin to use with networkmanager [1]
In order to introduce nm on distribution using ifcfg files (redhat/fedora) the ifcfg-rh plugin has been wrote to read & make nm able to use them (& avoid interferences between nm & the « old » scripts).
+ +
So to use it you simply need to configure networkmanager by editing /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

For example on my workstation i've got :
+ +
cat NetworkManager.conf 
[main]
plugins=keyfile
dns=dnsmasq
+ +
[keyfile]
hostname=aker.cauldron.lan.littleboboy.net

+ +it's mean that i'm using the keyfile plugin (read [1] or man NetworkManager.conf for more details) & ask nm to to also start dnsmasq for me.
I also setup the hostname to set in nm in the keyfile section.
+ +

There's also no need to do a « fresh » install to test/use it.
