People still wanted a way to make NetworkManager ignore an interface. That's what happened in that bug. NM_CONTROLLED=no was set in the ifcfg file, and thus NM ignores the interface just like the user requested.
Were NM_CONTROLLED not present or "yes", NM would be able to control that interface and bring it up before login.
