Title:
  Connect hidden network dropdown lacks explicit "TKIP" mention

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  In nm-applet, when creating a connection to a new hidden network, the
  user is given a drop-down list of wifi networks types
  (WEP/WPA/foo/bar).

  This drop down uses the phrases "WPA Personal" and "WPA Enterprise".

  Today when needing to connect to a client's network I was given the
  information about it being "TKIP"---this turns out to be "WPA
  Personal", but this is not mentioned explicitly.

  Ideally the string could be changed to a phrase such as "WPA Personal
  (TKIP)".
