Alex, the policy on Stable Release Updates, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates , is pretty clear that fixes to core components, like network manager, are only appropriate if they are of a high impact. Thus far this one has been shown to be of low to moderate impact, and has a work around. That, coupled with the fact that the fix introduced regressions, means this isn't appropriate for release to updates.
