Public bug reported:
When selecting a network to connect to from nm-applet's list, sometimes
the list updates and redraws itself the split-second before clicking on
a network. The often results in the order of networks changing, so that
the wrong network is clicked on by mistake.
It would be helpful if the list was prevented from updating/redrawing
when it is visible, so that this cannot happen.
An alternative solution would be to have the option to hide user-
selected networks that will never be used from the list (e.g. ones that
belong to neighbours etc.), so that they can never be clicked on by
mistake in the future.
