Reported in bitmessage chan:

I am reporting a bug.
To reproduce:

  1. Backup $HOME/.config/PyBitmessage and remove the directory
  2. Start bitmessagemain.py
  3. When dialog popped, select "Work offline" and push "OK"
  4. On "Settings" menu, go "Network Settings"
    and select "Proxy server / Tor" "Type:" "SOCKS5",
    then push "OK"
    (In this case Tor is required, but I guess any changes may work)
  5. Select "Network Status" tab, and wait few minutes
  6. The client will be automatically connected to some nodes

Tested on latest git version: commit e237534335

I'm not sure if this is just unintuitive UI, or there is a check to see if you're changing network settings for the first time which mis-checks.
