Mathieu,
You may want to edit the connection file and remove the permission
line to make that connection available to all users again.

It should have; but this reacts as if you had no permissions to edit the
connection, which is odd. Does that connection exist under
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections? If so, could you email it to me
at my @canonical.com address?
This particular issue could be due to files sticking around in

If that isn't already checked, can you verify whether Available to all
users is set on the connections you're interested in? It's also very
relevant if it happens to any of the wireless connections.
If you see that Available... isn't checked, please take a snapshot of
