after disconnecting it seems that libnl cache managers get into a bad state where oif for the topmost 0.0.0.0 route (and nexthop if for libnl >= 2) is NULL.
route -n shows proper interface for the routes, so I believe its libnl cache manager that has a problem keeping up.
also it seems that RECONNECT event is not always emitted when NM adds a VPN default route. No idea yet whats happening under the hood, so could be its a different bug.
