You don't need a patch to nm-applet to do this; it's a modification that
can be reverted in a patch that's already included.

I don't think reverting that commit in shell is a good idea, it will
mean modifying both gnome-shell to drop that commit, and nm-applet to
not start on shell, with the added possible issues from things failing
to work in that case. Not sure if the VPNs still depend on nm-applet
running; but that used to be an issue. I'm not really prepared to deal
with this so late in the cycle.

I'm testing with the nm-applet patch changed to use just the NORMAL
priority. Things seem to look reasonable. You risk missing the
notification anyway even when it's critical (when it times out or if
it's overriden by another critical notification somehow), and
applications themselves already track network status. I think it's
reasonable to drop the priority.
