James_w's PPA fixes it for me. Thank you very much!

Steps which reproduce the problem in Maverick, but which cause no such problem 
in the PPA:
1. Run "gnome-network-properties"
2. Change the location.
3. Press close
4. Press "Apply System-Wide" on the dialog that pops up.
5. Bring focus to the authentication window by clicking on the window header 
(NOT the password box)
6. Type password, press enter
