I'm still getting this at least sometimes. I don't use the killswitch
very often because of that, but it seems that the behavior changes from
time to time.

Before Gutsy, nm-applet would display the "disconnected" status when I
killed the wireless, and automatically re-connected when I reset the
switch.

Right now, it can't tell the wireless is off, it just shows the "no
signal" icon. After I reset the switch it doesn't do anything, and when
I try to manually reconnect it can't (it tries for a while then stops
with the "No network connection"). I just noticed that iwconfig says
"eth1      no wireless extensions." after on/offing the killswitch ---
but eth1 is my wireless card. So it might not be nm-applet's fault.
