Public bug reported:

The WiFi Configuration page has an option "Automatically connect to VPN when using this connection". This is useful.
However, if an error occurs connecting to the VPN, my Wifi Connection is then automatically disconnected by Network Manager. This is frustrating and doesn't match the description of the option. An error connecting to the VPN should not disconnect the WiFi connection.

** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
