@Alexander: Though I've not yet posted anything concerning this issue, I have encountered similar problems.
ad 1. If you are using older accounts, where the password got saved to the keyring, everything works as expected.
ad 2. yes, I did. I've used a modified vpnc-plugin (ubuntu one with patches to support hybrid-auth) and I'm still using it successfully with intrepid. Password configuration for vpn is saved in keyring as it should, even if you set up new ones via connection-editor.
ad 3. WPA-PSK, WPA-EAP
ad 4. Yes. Setting the connection system wide works as well as connecting to WPA and WPA2 accounts per user. Only passwords are not remembered for user-defined connections (no gnome-keyring-dialog appears neither when you first time are providing a password nor later on).
ad 5. When you disconnect and reconnect within a session usually you don't have to provide the password a second time. Only after canceling connection, logging out and logging back in nm asks for the passphrase again.
attachment B (contents of /etc/network/interfaces):
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
I'll add attachment A as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance for investigating this issue,
