I wonder how accurate this is (in spite of it being in TUV's tech notes!).

If you do an SL6 kickstart install with just "@base", NM's installed
and active. So, unless an "@base" install's somehow considered a
"client use" install, that statement's for SL6. Fedora's behaved this
way for a few releases so it's probably safe to assume that RHEL6 does
too.
