Hello. After further investigation I found out the following:
---
In Maverick the current version for network-manager-gnome is 
0.8.1+git.20100809t190028.290dc70-0ubuntu3

I found out that my network-manager-gnome package was an upgraded one
from ppa:elementaryart/elementarydesktop, namely version
0.8.2+git.20101123t161608.f143e76-0ubuntu1

I downgraded to the default. Result:
 - Memory leak is MUCH LESS SIGNIFICANT. Before, I could follow increases in 
memory use by the minute, now there's almost no increase (It's been on 4.8 mb 
for half an hour now). I have yet to test with very long runtime, but as 
mentioned I suspect indicator-applet to have a general issue as well, but I'll 
leave that to the experts.
 - Icons for signal strength of detected networks are back (just noticed that 
they were missing with the upgrade).
 - Icons for signal strength are screwed again when using the Elementary Dark 
theme, but this is not really a big issue.

Btw.: to remove the quick fix I posted, remember to remove the connman package 
and reboot.
