The RT2500 series cards do not support Wireless Extensions which is how Network Manager communicates with the card. Once they have implemented WEXT support the card will be seen and will use WPA properly. Since this bug doesn't apply to NM but to the RT2500 Driver I would think that this bug should be assigned to the Linux kernel ( I /THINK/ the RT2500 driver is in the kernel now), set to wishlist and linked to a bug upstream with the driver maintainers.

I vaguely recall that they were working towards WEXT support but I am not sure on the status.
