After the upgrade of the policykit (new version 0.6-1ubuntu4), this problem still occurs. Opening the network manager via the applet asks for the administrative password and the unlock button is greyed out. Running gksudo network-admin in a terminal window gives the same behavior. Only running network-admin without gksudo gives the expected behavior: the unlock button is enabled and pressing it asks for the user password. So it seems like the applet is still using gksudo to open the network-admin.
