usb ethernet with connection sharing wanted

Project Member Reported by ensonic@google.com, Mar 21 2017

Issue description

When I connect a device (lego mindstorms ev3) via USB to a chromebook, some parts of ChromeOS seem to recognize the usb ethernet, but the UI won't give my many options to create a profile.
What I am looking for is 
http://www.ev3dev.org/docs/tutorials/connecting-to-the-internet-via-usb/

I'd like the chromebook to:
* answer the dhcp request and hand out an IP (since it is USB and there is only one peer, this can be quite simple).
* setup port forwarding to share the chrombooks internet connection

According to the reply we already have e.g. dnsmasq as part of chromeos. Hence this could be classified as a UI feature request.
