Sometimes. The UUID is generated (I think) whenever a connection is created. (By "connection", I mean "a group of settings data that describes how to use a particular network".) When the user clicks on an entry that represents a network that they haven't used before, the applet creates a connection for that network and then asks the daemon to use it. And when it creates this connection, it creates a UUID to identify it. So in that particular case, yes: among other things, a UUID is generated in response to that click. However, UUIDs are also created when creating a new connection via the connection editor. Also, when a user selects a network that they already have a saved connection for (possibly because they used it previously), then the applet just re-uses the connection data they already have. And that connection will already have a UUID in it. So in that case, no UUID needs to be generated. HTH!
