Comment 42 for bug 964705

I just installed kubuntu 18 after a long absence. I found that to make any change to the network settings I had to key in my (16 digit) password multiple times. About 5 times in fact.
Its a laptop. The user has to be able to do things like this.
If I have to modify system files (and reapply those changes after maintenance) then its just not worth it.
