Public bug reported:
This issue can be observed in Lucid, Maverick, and is also present in
the trunk of network-manager-applet.
The text of some buttons in the UI of nm-connection-editor changes based
on whether the action requires authentication via policyKit. This
includes the "Edit" and "Delete" buttons, and the "Apply" button in the
connection editor dialog. Whenever authentication is required, their
text is appended an ellipsis ("..."). This results in an ugly visual
effect: the button is resized to fit the text, and this affects the
layout of the window.
I’m not sure why this was designed like this in the first place, but to
me the additional ellipsis doesn’t convey any useful information that
authentication is required. The stock icon, if displayed, plays this
role well already.
