Thanks for the patch.
As it turns out it was just yesterday that I had encountered this behaviour when trying to set up a VPN.

Was quite confusing although I eventually noticed the tiny shift in notification area when starting/stopping nm-applet, figured out what was going on and was able to switch to managing with NM by reinstalling gnome-network-admin and setting the connection to roaming.

I suppose if I'd waited a day it would have all worked out. :)

At least you've cut down on future confused users.
