Description

In joyride-2301, it looks like we get NetworkManager into a tight loop by trying to connect to our "canopy" WPA AP: 

Aug 25 23:04:48 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0/wireless): ac
cess point 'canopy' is encrypted, but NO valid key exists.  New key needed.
Aug 25 23:04:48 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Activation (eth0) New wireless
 user key requested for network 'canopy'.

 (Device Configure) complete.

With 8.2-767, latest firmware, I connected to canopy fine. Sugar was happy. If this shows up again, we can raise priority.

Hrr, this kind of thing worries me. Why would we think this is fixed? Isn't the fact that NM is willing to infinite-loop instead of realizing that its key is failing worth fixing?

I think I would do a code review of this as blocker.

Just a note: Canopy is WEP (not WPA)
