Note default Connection Name ‘New wireguard connection’
Populate the following fields

Click Save
OBSERVED RESULT
The window closes and an error notification pops up briefly with an error
EXPECTED RESULT
Either detect the error in the name and flag it, preventing you from saving
OR
The VPN connection should save. I'm not sure why the default name is not
allowed or what can be done to allow it. I think the name should work with
spaces if at all possible. If not - set a sensible default that replaces spaces
with hyphens
