So with this patch, what happens when the applet dies for some reason
(admittedly shouldn't happen)?  Does it just fail to restart, and you
must log out and back in again?

What's wrong with disabling session management then?  Or running
nm-applet with '--sm-disable' ?

I'm not against the patch necessarily, just trying to figure out why the
session management stuff is breaking down here...

We could also try to init the DBUS service and if it's already owned,
just go away and not come back until next login.
