Cc'ed this to debian-boot and debian-release.

Dear RMs,

This is only one line change in nm-applet.desktop which benefit other
Window Managers and Desktops user. Please accept this change into Lenny.

We are discussing to have xfce/lxde cd image with lenny RC2 release on
debian-book and debian-cd. And I mentioned that XFCE and LXDE also need
wifi GUI tool such as network-manager. It's good that only a change in
nm-applet.desktop file would make network-manager works automaticlly in
a various Window Managers, XFCE and LXDE for our users.

No, as you well explaned. :)

Cheers,

-Andrew
