The changelog from 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.3 to 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.4 shows this new
patch, which could be very well the culprit:
* debian/patches/make_menu_items_insensitive_based_on_permissions.patch:
- Provide a method to desensitize or hide menu items which are useless given
the current policykit policy level of the user.
Maybe someone could try to remove it and see if that solves this bug?

Might be after upgrade to network-manager-gnome 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.4, the item
Edit Connections... at the bottom of the network manager's menu is now
insensitive i.e. grayed out, therefore user cannot configure his/her
connections as indicated in
http://docs.xubuntu.org/1204/internet-networks.html#network-connections
workaround : launch /usr/bin/nm-connection-editor to display the
network connections window and have access to the settings.
