Some additions:

-Happens on Lenovo T420s too. I don't think it is truly hardware
related.

-Adding another user account and switching to and back leads to an even more 
arkward situation, where nm-applet creates a new connection if an already known 
WiFi network is selected (and asks for the password again). One can easily 
crate tens of connections by trying to connect again and again. It seems user 
rights on the connections may be the cause for this problem. 
The same thing happes sometimes if nm-applet is just restarted. So I guess 
nm-applet is sometimes unable to read the whole state, and thus create new 
connections or don't reflect state.

So I would look for multi-user setups first to reproduce this bug.
