ConnMan is missing a proper GUI, please take CMST under your wings

Hello,

ConnMan in combination with IWD is an excellent network manager.
However, I don't like configuring everything through the shell, and the other people I want to install ConnMan for can't simply do that.

For this, a simple GUI would be needed, which was previously available in the form of CMST (https://github.com/andrew-bibb/cmst).
CMST was quite simple and clear and offered all the functions that are normally needed.
Unfortunately, the original maintainer suffered a tragic event and was no longer able to continue development.
Meanwhile, the Wi-Fi handling doesn't work properly anymore.

I think it would be great if this GUI were continued within the ConnMan project; I believe it would also contribute to the spread of ConnMan.

Regards,
Robert
