I don't think we need to bump KNetworkManager any further. Anyhow,
here's distribution-oriented information about the future situation of
the package, taken from a post today[0]

"VERY IMPORTANT: currently networkmanagement's master branch holds the
Plasma NM version for NM-0.8. A new branch nm08 was created and it
holds the Plasma NM for NM-0.8 from now on. The master branch is going
to hold the new libnm-qt when I finish to port it to nm09 code. So
distributions, pay attention to this change and update your package
build system to point to the correct branch."

When that last porting is done, we will be able to switch from the
-9999 ebuild we have right now to whatever version they release after
the porting. And that definitely won't happen before S7 so we are safe
to use our current version.

I have had a rough week but I'm now fetching the KDE daily x86 and
amd64 isos to do testing. I'll let you know if I find any blocking
issue.
