Created attachment 437616 [details] example dialog Description of problem: For an encrypted connection (WPA2 Enterprise in my case) one can check "ask for this password everytime". That is fine, but: 1. A whole dialog is opened, instead of just asking for the password (with some option to show the whole dialog). 2. Password field does not have focus, so you must traverse all the items by keyboard or select it by mouse. 3. Text in password field is not selected, you must delete it before you can start writing new password. The whole text should be pre-selected so it can be overwritten easily. Fixing #2 and #3 is a matter of a few one-line patches, but it will improve user experience greatly. #1 is a more difficult task, but it could also help. Please fix those problems, thanks.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Same problem at Fedora 14.
