Network-manager-pptp does not work with saved vpn password

[Jaco]

Binary package hint: network-manager-pptp

When I create a PPTP VPN connection using the network-manager UI, and enter a username and password for the connection, and try to connect it, it says "The VPN Connection failed because there were no valid VPN secrets".
However, if I edit the connection preferences and remove the password, and connect, it comes up with a dialog asking for the password. When I enter the password the connection works.
I have tried this several times and the behaviour is reproducable.

I confirm that. syslog has following line concerning this:

Oct 20 09:40:39 roger NetworkManager: <WARN> get_secrets_cb(): Couldn't get connection secrets: vpn-password-dialog.c.299 (nma_vpn_request_password): canceled.

I get this as well - tailing /var/log/syslog I get this:

I can confirm this on Intrepid Beta. Same error message as Hendrick and Jonathan...
