That's expected with the new nm09 branch kde-plasma-networkmanagement which 
uses the native NetworkManager 0.9 API. It is a feature of NetworkManager 
0.9 that multiple applets can coexist and that all settings are stored 
systemwide (with appropriate permissions/visibility, and with secrets stored 
separately in secure per-user storage (e.g. KWallet) when desired).
