"Well Rounded" Network Engineer...?

Recently had several conversations with peers and seniors in the industry, and most defined a well rounded engineer as someone who knows his/her way around networking, some scripting, automation, nix/windows knowledge, etc.

But the thing I'm curious about is that almost nobody mentioned anything about being well rounded in the networking field itself. R&S aside, there are so many appliances out there (VPN boxes, firewalls, proxies, packet shapers, load balancers, WAN accelerators, wireless, IPAM etc.) What is the average engineer's skills and experience across the networking spectrum like?
