I actually meant nm-applet and not gnome-applet.

I see only phase2_auth property used in PEAP, FAST PEAP and TTLS, but in TLS 
there 
are other phase2-foo properties used only when parent->phase2 is true. I just 
don't 
understand why this property is always set to false in 
https://git.gnome.org/browse/network-manager-applet/tree/src/wireless-security/wireless-security.c[1]
by passing false as third parameter to eap_method_tls_new (line 428).

Is there any place where this property gets changed?
