It appears to me like the failure mode changed - it no longer complains about
not reaching the agent anymore.
I assume that's caused by
https://github.com/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/78ef571972aa3bf81b287d767ae02471e2924027

> Can we please get a log file of NetworkManaer with log level=TRACE ?

Full journal of playing around in a VM attached - except for the first
connection (no secret required yet) no autoconnect worked.
Note that somewhere in the middle I installed NM 1.10.5-dev, but it made no
difference.
I also don't see any difference for system wide or per user connections.

The important parts (system wide connection):

- On NM start:
M�r 02 21:24:51 localhost.localdomain NetworkManager[3392]: <debug>

- After login:

[1520022318.8957] policy: re-enabling autoconnect for all connections (only

Then nothing happens. I'd expect NM to enable the ens3 connection after that.
