Public bug reported:

My home network has a hidden SSID, but the new (compared to 14.04)
network manager doesn't allow to store the password, so I have to enter
it every time I want to connect (this also applies to reconnections
after system wake-up, from standbys).

This is very annoying, and doesn't make much sense, as NM is remembering
the network (SSID) - it just doesn't store the password.
