The menu item doesn't fix the problem. As I said before, the moment you switch to a static IP configuration using network-admin (I even went to the menu item added), and NM automatically shows that the connection is disconnected, and liferea/gaim/epiphany goes into offline mode.

Basically, if there are any references of the interface in question in /etc/network/interfaces, NM would consider that interface to be disconnected.
