Today systemd cant but in the future it might depending on how things 
progress.

 From my point of view an single network management application should 
be integrated into the init system in this case systemd/CoreOS.

It just begs the question to what extent as to complexity.

In the end the solution what ever it might be needs to be something that 
can be light enough to be on embedded but flexible enough to handle 
complex server environment with the desktop falling somewhere between 
those two.

I'm very well that a lot of people think forking is fun but I just dont 
tend to agree with that for something that is fundamental part of the 
underlying OS as network management is and should be from my pov.
