I've got that one solved too. I'll get a patch up soon (right now the 
code is littered with a ridiculous number of nm_debug calls). I'm able 
to initiate the vpn connection from nm-applet and the openvpn binary is 
getting called but erroring out. I can manually run the openvpn binary 
using the same options and connect to the management interface and 
everything works. Pretty close to getting it working.
