Title:
  A Guest cannot connect easily to a new Wifi network without admin
  password

Status in OEM Priority Project:
  Invalid
Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When a guest is using its guest session and wants to join a new Wifi
  network, the administrative rights GUI is shown and the guest just
  cancel.

  this is because (I guess) by default a new network should be available
  to all users and thus stored in a way that needs admin rights.

  A workaround : add manually the Wifi network and uncheck the
  "available to all users"

  note : adding the OEM project because It was a blocking issue for
  testing an Asus Ubuntu computer presented in a shop.
