Create a file called /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/10-org-freedesktop-network-manager-settings.pkla with the following contents:
[Allow user michael to create wireless connections for all users] Identity=unix-user:michael Action=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.* ResultAny=yes ResultInactive=no ResultActive=yes Replacing 'michael' with your UNIX user name of course. Restart NM, and you should be able to edit connections as you like. I do agree that this doesn’t seem documented well.
