Description Michal Odehnal 2019-10-18 13:41:26 UTC 
Description of problem:
Turn Screen Sharing ON, set Require a password and enter a password. Close gnome-control-center and open again. Open the Screen Sharing window again. The password is gone. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-control-center-3.28.2-5.el8.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open gnome-control-center -> Sharing -> Screen Sharing
2. Turn Screen Sharing On.
3. Set Require a password.
4. Enter a password.
5. Close and open again (1. step).

Actual results:
Password is gone.

Expected results:
Password is still there.

Additional info:
This is quite confusing as the password disappeared but the password is still active as I can confirm via vinagre and connecting to the localhost with VNC setting.
