Sorry, spoke a bit to soon. My workaround above doesn't actually work
when I do LightDM+Unity, only when I do text boot (i.e. when I've done
systemctl set-default multi-user.target (instead of graphical.target)),
and start i3 with startx.

(Actually, when running Unity, the script *does* execute and *does* kill
and start nm-applet again, but nm-applet doesn't show up as an icon in
the taskbar. I don't know why.)

systemctl restart network-manager always fixes the issue and can easily
be put in a systemd unit file (see e.g.
https://gist.github.com/nitely/3d5f10b4f686f5f96c95), but that seems
rather heavy when it's just nm-applet that needs restarting, at least in
my case.

Also, I seem to have made a mistake in the script above - change post/*)
to post)
