Title:
  nm-applet right-click menu shows wrong status of switches

Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  current Ubuntu 11.10
  Linux 3.0.0-13-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 17 20:18:09 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
  Package: network-manager-gnome 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu6

  after nm-applet start, there are no 'checks' in it's right-click menu in front of such items as 'Enable networking', 'Enable wireless', etc
  But all those items present in menu
  It looks as if Network manager is disabled, but it works.

  Enabling and disabling items in right-click menu also works. And after that the correct status is shown, but for every separate item. 
  I.e. there can be no check on 'Enable networking' but it can be present on 'Enable wireless' which is inconsistent with logic of items (disabling 'Enable networking' should also disable everything else).
  If I manually restart nm-applet, menu goes 'unchecked' again.

  I've attached screenshots of inconsistent menus. On both pictures NM
  is de-facto enabled and wireless connection is established.

  Also I currently do not have any wireless modems or wimax devices in
  my system, but corresponding items are allways present in menu.
