Not sure if this is new in 2.0.2.45, but I have never noticed it before.

The phone is lying on my desk with the screen facing up. I am not touching it. It keeps waking up 2-3 times per hour to tell me that the phone is now connected to the network, either WiFi or mobile.

There is a "Show notifications when device is locked" option in Settings. Is that what does it? I have it enabled because I want to see email and SMS notifications. Notifications like "Connected to WiFi" should be IMO completely silent or have a separate switch.

You could try if disabling that option makes the device behave differently... :)

Just noticed this as well. It seems like now every possible notification wakes up the screen, whereas it used to be only notifications from Messages.

yep, confirm! Both on phone and tablet. I had disabled device lock, so the option was not shown. But the screen gets switched on when notifications "happen" nevertheless. Activated device lock and disabled the option now to test for changes.

Well, I have not been watching the phone all the time but I have not seen the screen waking up since I disabled the option. One side effect though is that I have not seen other notifications either, e.g. email.

Notification sounds are still played though which is the important thing. After all, the sound is the only thing I need in the most common use case, the phone in the pocket.

Yep... Same here...

Sorry for the late update, I've nearly forgotten about this.

There is a "Show notifications when device is locked" option in Settings. Is that what does it?

As it turns out, it does. Disabling that switch silences the notifications. All notifications, that is. If the screen is off, it does not wake up for anything. Network change, SMS, email...

Closing the question as irrelevant.
