This appears to be exactly what happened with the upload of network-
manager-applet 0.9.6.0~git201207161252.13c6db8-0ubuntu1.  Now it’s
_always_ impossible to connect to a VPN from gnome-shell, even when nm-
applet is started first.

Bug description:
  I have two VPNs configured with network-manager-openconnect, and I
  can’t connect to either one of them within GNOME Shell.  When I select
  them from the gnome-shell network menu, nothing happens.  No new
  message show up in ~/.xsession-errors, although I got this one on
  login:

  ** Message: Stopping registered applet secret agent because GNOME
  Shell is running

  In a GNOME Classic session, the VPNs work fine.
