I just discovered something. Last time the bug manifested itself, I tried to blindly enter my password. Twice. It didn't work, and I restarted. That led to me being unable to connect via WLAN. Further scrutiny revealed that my login password had been appended to my AP PSK. That tells me that gnome-screensaver unlocked, and that I on my second unlock attempt blindly wrote my password in the WLAN connection prompt. So, everything is "there", just not visible. Also, could the WLAN connection dialog in the background have triggered this bug, or was that a "lucky" coincidence?
