Research direction

Reproduce the issue using the CLI and control panel with the "intranet" network on macOS, then trace the menubar network-list entry point and its leave/disconnect handling. Compare the menubar state with the control panel after leaving; done means the network remains listed as disconnected in the menubar.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Small weird thing, if you leave a network from the cli, it disappears from the list in the menubar. It's not in there as disconnected.

It is still listed in the control panel.

If you leave from the control panel, sometimes this happens too.

Currently on 1.8.10, macos, intel. Testing with the "intranet" network.
