Bug#653819: gnome-control-center: Wireless networking cannot be reenabled without restart

Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:3.0.2-3+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Wireless networking cannot be reenabled after disabling it with the On/Off
switch in the network menu from the Top Bar or with the On/Off switch in System
Settings > Network > Wireless.

  - It seems to be enabling Airplane Mode, which is possibly preventing
Wireless from being reenabled.  Disabling Airplane Mode in System Settings >
Network does not help; closing and reopening the network settings reveals that
Airplane Mode does not remain disabled.

  - Starting from Wireless being enabled, the physical switch on my laptop can
both disable and enable wireless networking as intended, with the displayed
On/Off switch in both the Top Bar menu and System Settings > Network > Wireless
displaying the state of my physical switch.
