According to the initial bug report http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341320
"This is probably the daemon exiting/crashing/breaking. nm-applet is supposed
to vanish from the tray in that case.

If NM is crashing, that is a legit bug, and should be filed with appropriate
back trace."

You could check with ps that nm-applet is normally running and it appears again if you restart NetworkManager at least for some seconds.
