Yeah, this is a clearly a bug. If you have time, could you please report
it on bugzilla.gnome.org against the gnome-shell product,
network-indicator component, and add my email address to the CC list?
(I'm away from my affected computer right now.) Please include the
version of NetworkManager that you are using (try 'rpm -qi
NetworkManager' or 'dpkg -s network-manager')

Unfortunately you're using the one version where the wired network
indicator isn't present. It was killed in the status menu redesign for
GNOME 3.10, then restored for 3.12 in response to negative user
feedback.
