My experience was mixed:

My testing method:
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS fully updated with apt-get
- enabled 'trusty proposed' repo in synaptic
- from synaptic installed (updated) network-manager-gnome + whatever 
dependencies it decided to choose for itself
- reboot (just because)

Results:
- first attempt to import my config.ovpn file succeeded, but
   - it didn't save my password on first try
   - the connection name didn't show up in nm-applet
   - second try it saved my password;
   - then the connection name did show up in nm-applet
- selecting the VPN connection name from the VPN menu in nm-applet 
results in nothing happening.  No connection is actually made. The 
"flashy connecting" icon doesn't appear where the nm-applet icon lives 
in the panel.

So basically, I can import a VPN connection, and I can't use it.
