Public bug reported:

Upstream reverted showing the desktop launcher of nm-connection-editor because 
it's confusing for the average user, its icon is outdated and does not follow 
the current GNOME icon design guidelines.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/issues/55
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/commit/a0c31ed5

Upstream follow-up bug: Remove runtime dependency on network-manager-applet 
(nm-connection-editor)
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/512

So in the meantime I suggest exposing a button in the Network panel (or
else where it fits) to open nm-connection-editor in order not to lose
the tool's functionally. The name of the button could be Advanced
Network Configuration.

Note: we are already doing the same thing for Region & Language settings
and Printer settings.
