Public bug reported:

When I launch nm-connection-editor, and edit wifi connection with "WPA &
WPA2 Enterprise", and add an SSL key file and the password, then several
actions can cause the password to vanish, making me re-enter it every
time I want to use the connection:

 * sudo service network-manager restart
 * hibernating the computer
 * reboot

That's very annoying, and requiring me to type the password every time
(where people could see it) doesn't add any security.
