Public bug reported:
this is a minor usability hassle.
current behavior:
from the networkmanager applet, select a password locked network that you have
not previously entered a key for.
wireless network authentication required box pops up.
the key type menu is focused (the default is almost always correct).
now have to tab or click in the key field.
type key
now have to tab to, or click connect button.
ideal behavior:
from the networkmanager applet, select a password locked network that you have
not previously entered a key for
key field focused
type key
press enter.
all that needs to change is to set the original focus to the key field,
and make enter trigger the connect button.
possible negative side effect, if network key is a passphrase, then an
extra shift-tab would be needed. but i expect most people will choose
from the drop down menu with the mouse, so initial focus does not
matter.
