This problem is not unique, there are many around the world
experiencing similar problems and possibly blaming them on other
things such as drivers, kernel... My only solution at the moment is
to make a X automation script to auto click the "Connect" button when
this happens. It is possibly the lamest solution but I hope it will
work out.
I don't think this is a good idea. It hides potential other issues
with drivers, wpasupplicant, or whatever. I think in most cases where
you lose the connection and retry fails, it's reasonable to ask for
the password again.
A more elegant solution to this problem is for an advanced user to be
able to handle the retry failure dbus event that triggers the password
dialog and override the default action. Perhaps this is already possible.
