This doesn't look like a downstream specific issue, so it would be great
if you can file this upstream at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=NetworkManager

You might check if it has already been reported at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/page.cgi?id=browse.html&product=NetworkManager

Once you have an upstream bug number, please report back so we can mark
this bug accordingly.

Regards,
Michael
