FYI
After std Precise software updates updated
libnm-gtk-common to 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.5
network-manager-gnome to 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.5
Edit Connections is NOT greyed out when I connect to console using VMware vSphere client 5.5.0,
but it still IS greyed out when I connect to same Ubuntu 12.04 LTS machine, as same user, using Remote Desktop from Windows 7 (with xVNC on Ubuntu).
I'm not sure the above updates fixed the problem in the vSphere client situation. It is possible I have only ever seen this problem when using Remote Desktop. I expected vSphere client and Remote Desktop to be the same.
