NM creates a connection for Ethernet devices automatically in case no
connections exist at all. That's needed to achieve "just works" behavior, which
is enough for the vast majority of users. If you don't want your ethernet
device to connect automatically, create a new ethernet connection and unset the
autoconnect property.
Helmut, you should remove the "Deactivate connection" menu item, it's not
supported in NM. The connection gets deactivated on the DBus call and then NM
finds the device has link and it automatically activates the last successful
connection (which is the one user just deactivated).
