Hi!
Because nm-applet autostarts, and you tell it to autostart.  So you get
two....
You can probably run as many as you want to, which might have some real
world application...
but it may be that the programmers never anticipated anyone trying to
run 2 at a time.

Potentially you could have some update script that runs, and looks to
see if the user has two, and then removes the workaround.
But, hey it works, that is awesome enough!!

Julien rocks!
