This bug is valid for all releases at least up to maverick!

Moreover, when working in an insecure enviroment it may be pretty
dangerous to use NM with openvpn since NM immediately flags any
unencrypted connection as valid without starting openVPN as desired.

This may result in applications like evolution and firefox beginning to
run unencrypted data transfers immediately which not only is a security
risk but also slows down or even completely inhibits the user from being
able to establish the VPN manually (see also: bug #420411 ).
