Network manager widget does not work (please see the screenshot for the result and error messages.)

I am using KDE with kubuntu 14.04:

I expected to see an icon with network connection configuratoin options... To see what happens instead please see the attached screenshot.

If you want my understanding of it, there is a problem with /usr/share/kde4/apps/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.networkmanagement/contents/ui/ConnectionItem.qml line 370, somehow onAccepted is not a property of PlasmaComponents.TextField. Everything seems to work after commenting onAccepted property.

.....

            PlasmaComponents.TextField {
                id: passwordInput;

                width: 200;
                height: implicitHeight;
                anchors {
                    horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter;
                    top: passwordSeparator.bottom;
                    topMargin: padding.margins.top;
                }
                echoMode: showPasswordCheckbox.checked ? TextInput.Normal : TextInput.Password
                placeholderText: i18n("Password...");
                onAccepted: {
                    stateChangeButton.clicked();
                }
            }

Thanks

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

So far I found out, that somehow the TextField gets imported from the "touch" library, which lacks this property. But I'am not an expert in plasmoid programming to figure out, why its the case. Willing to provide more info as needed. BTW: its the same environment as reported by guziy.

strace output of plasmoid launcher invoked like this: "strace -fo foo.log plasmoid /usr/share/kde4/apps/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.networkmanagement/

If one greps for "qml", one notes that the type from which the ConnectionItem derives from (Textfield) is beeing tried to be imported from touch library. This raises the specified error
