Public bug reported:
Sometimes, nm-applet spams my screen with authentication dialogs for one
of my wireless networks. Even if I enter the right passphrase in the
authentication dialog or click 'Cancel', the dialog goes away for a
short while, but then reappears a few minutes later. Sometimes it opens
like 10 dialogs at the same time and at other times I can't even close
the dialog.
This is flaky behavior I have observed for several cycles of Ubuntu and
I would really like to see it fixed.
