Being picky you could say that "Automatically reconnect on network connection loss" should only work for wifi networks where "Automatically connect to this network" is set, too. But then again, in that case "Automatically reconnect on network connection loss" as a separate global setting wouldn't make that much sense, maybe unless you want to disable automatic reconnect globally even if it is enabled for some wifi networks. There is also this rather old bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/wicd/+bug/480097 and https://bugs.debian.org/544410 which might be related. The one on launchpad is still open, the one in the Debian BTS has been closed, because two of the reporters could no more reproduce it without any code change. There are also quite some other bug reports at https://bugs.launchpad.net/wicd?field.searchtext=reconnect&search=Search but most of them seem to be related to reconnect after suspend to RAM or have debug logs attached which don't show the error message above.
