$ pactree network-manager-applet | grep gnome
   |--libgnome-keyring
      |--gnome-keyring
   |--polkit-gnome

That's "half" of Gnome?

I can plug in my Motorola ROKR E8, Huawei E220, some random CDMA or
UMTS device in some random country, connect to a WPA2-secured hotspot,
and even dial up ADSL. Compared to that, the above dependencies are
nothing. Moreover, it fits in nicely with everything else, KDE or
Openbox.
