I just discovered something that may be interesting/useful for debugging this issue:

I have several networks where the password is always lost (e.g. after suspend and resume). I would always be prompted for the password when connecting, and nothing would be pre-filled in the password box. It's not available to all users (deliberately), only to me.

Following the above comments, I went into the Network Manager applet and selected this network, and then the Security tab. To my surprise, there was no password stored on this tab. I entered the password here, saved and closed the network details, and went in to edit them again; the password was still saved. And now I can connect to that network with no problems.

So it seems that the Network Manager applet is unable to save the password in whatever repository is used to populate the security details on this tab.
