Bug Description
NetworkManager / nm-applet:
This appears to be a simple design fault in that PPPoE is only available over "Wired" networks, and the defined PPPOE networks are greyed out when connected via "Wireless" and not "Wired" connections are available.
People in the wireless industry make extensive use of PPPoE connections via Wireless and there is no sensible reason to not enable connecting PPPoE connections when connected exclusively via "Wireless".
