[Bug 1315996] Re: nm-applet is being autostarted under gnome-shell, Again....

[Dmitry Shachnev]

I think this is intended (upstream) behaviour. See
https://git.gnome.org/browse/network-manager-
applet/commit/?id=e192e83c1aa136512a9d4f026f81677799af8127:

"Change the shell interaction code so that we only create an
NMSecretAgent if the shell is not running, and we permanently destroy it
if the shell ever starts up."

I.e. nm-applet is autostarted, but immediately destroys itself when
gnome-shell is detected.
