I'm trying to migrate from the OpenVPN legacy client connection component to the new instance component.
However, the new form is missing certain features. e.g. there is no way to use no compression (--comp-lzo no).

Then how do I set the following options? (which I've been using for my current openvpn connections)

tun-mtu-extra 32;
mssfix 1450;
persist-key;
persist-tun;
remote-cert-tls server;

I can set mssfix in the new form, but it's just a checkmark. There's no value field. So where do I put the 1450? In reality 1450 is the default value for mssfix, but what would I have to do, if I wanted to set another value? The fragment field is most likely the value for --fragment value so there's no way to set the mssfix value.

It also seems that persist-key and persist-tun have to be added to the options.

It's ok the deprecate and even remove functionality, but the new component should at least allow the same functionality as before.
