Warn the user when connecting to an open AP which has been connected
before as encrypted

Bug description:
scenario:
Bob works at an office which provides encrypted wireless for the
employees to securely connect to the company network. Somebody outside
the office sets up an access point with the same SSID but without
encryption hoping that somebody from the company connects to it. Bob
does not notice that the AP he sees in his indicator is in fact not
encrypted and connects to the open AP thinking he is connected to the
company secure AP and now all his sensitive traffic is exposed to the
attacker.
