Rodrigo, can you please check if this still happens on the current version, and if so, forward this upstream? Can you please evaluate what it would take to fix this? Perhaps it's just a hidden widget (there is some blank space in the dialog). If you don't have time, please assign to canonical- desktop- team. Thanks!
