Is there a workaround to make the Plugin accept PSK with less than 20 characters, e.g. via some CLI tool?

And maybe someone could explain where this limitation comes from. As others have pointed out if you connect to a foreign VPN you may not have control over the length of the PSK that they assign you. So you're out of luck in this case.

Releated problem: If I select to "Ask for password each time" (translated back from German) in the dropdown of the password field I still can not save the connection. This makes no sense as I explicitely selected to not enter the password here.
