Wifi password not taken into account if not entered rapidly

[rogue-spectre]

Hi,

    We install ubuntu/mint to numerous people and we got multiple reports that the wifi password was not taken into account. We managed to reproduce it by

1 - Select your wifi network
2 - Enter a fake password (Just to simulate a user error not entering well his wifi password)
3 - Obviously here we cannot connect, so we wait
4 - Password is asked a second time, and we enter it without error but we take our time to do so ( or wait some time after ). By taking our time we simulate people who are not fluent with their keyboard.
5 - Wait to connect
6 - Password is asked a third time.
7 - Here if we go into the properties of the wifi (Applet > Modify > Modify) and check the password… the first fake password is still there

Nice day

It might be a double of this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1219171

Maybe this bug is a duplicate of LP bug #1650835 (wifi association times out while typing password)?

Maybe ;)… it seems that they also report in bug #1650835 a problem of timing but did not make mistakes typing the password the first time. Maybe not a duplicate… but obviously it seems that the problems might be linked
