Public bug reported:

Upgraded machine to 16.04beta2 XFCE last night and noticed a problem
with the network connections management.

If I have previously browsed, selected and connected to a WiFi network
it's properties are stored under 'edit connections'. In my environment
(maybe computer specific or just too many ESSIDs available) networks do
not show up in the browse list sometimes, I could use 'connect to hidden
network' to force a previous connection to start.

Now, with latest 16.04beta, when I attempt to do this the 'connect'
button is greyed out and does not operate.

NOTE: this a problem with the GUI (when requesting action), not with the
actual part of making the WiFi connection.
