I don't see how it's a bug in network manager. I have network manager disabled and use /etc/network/interfaces directly to connect to the internet, I'm still online, but firefox assumes I'm not. Assuming network-manager accurately displays the networking status is the bug.
The original bug report (hence the scope of the bug, surely) is nothing to do with ppp but instead wireless connection...
