The current behaviour is to modify system connections by default. You
either need to be in the admin group, or you need to uncheck the box and
create personal network connections. The current behaviour is as
intended.

I am marking this bug as "Opinion" since there is a disagreement on
whether or not a non-admin user can create system connections.
