Hmm...

Well, the UI is just basing that on what it got from the HTTP API. In 
general synchronised_slave_nodes should be a subset of slave_nodes.

However the mgmt plugin gets the data from different sources, so you may 
have found a bug. What does rabbitmqctl show in this situation? (It goes 
via a different route.) Can you reproduce it?
