Since gnome3, NetworkManager no longer uses GConf but writes on 
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/
The 'available to all users' workaround has the main problem that then for the 
imported accounts this will save passwords to etc in plaintext and no longer in 
the encrypted gnome-keyring. If your network password is part of another 
account (eg LDAP) this can be a problem.

So the solution would be to remember the password in the keyring as it was 
before instead of forgetting it
(there is the option psk-flags=1 in system-connections which apparently could 
be used for that)
