My points to not doing that from beginning, were:

* it is sepparate dialog in Gnome-2 (dunno about Gnome-3) and Firefox
* we don't have tabs in CP components and having all Network related
  stuff in one CP component will make it huge
* we already have separate CP components for Network and Modem

In any case, this is the exact question to people who are skilled in
GUI usability field, not to developers.
