(Get the code!)
This is not a bug but wanted behavior. Instead of forcefully breaking connections, we're notifying (via the reboot icon in panel, or a red power icon now) that it would be a good time after upgrading NetworkManager to reboot. Nothing it forced upon the users :) If you want to restart NetworkManager alone then it will work just as well; it's just that rebooting is a sure way to know it has been restarted. Given the risk of other changes from updates, it remains a good practice.
Closing as Won't Fix. This is substancially better than breaking connection with a forceful reload of NM, and we do want to avoid asking the user for such things.
