Unassigning: there's work needed to be done upstream, that's been being
thought of for a while now, but not yet implemented; to avoid asking for
the password repeatedly.

NetworkManager by itself won't go on a new network you've never
connected to before and ask for the password; this may happen only when
roaming to a similarly named network that has different security
settings. Unfortunately, figuring out that this is the case isn't
simple.

As another possibility, if you've already been on that network and you
think the password is the same, maybe there was an issue migrating GConf
keys from 0.8 to 0.9 in Oneiric. You may want to try setting "Available
to all users" on that connection if it's not already set.

Since there's rather important changes needed to implement this
upstream, I'll unassign myself and we'll revisit this issue after
Precise.
