admin isnt installed by default anymore and normal users can configure
networks without many permissions.

Network Profile _switching_ should n
Well, in order to change the profile combobox, i need to "unlock" first,
otherwise it's shaded. Thus need to put my password (dunno if it uses it to
gain root privileges or just to recheck my own identity as a user, though). So
i would say it still occurs.
Also if i wait too much in the unlockin
Hi there
do you still experience this issue with the current version of the
application?, could you please try to reproduce this using the live
environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Hardy Heron.
Thanks in advance

Note that in Hardy, despite Policy-kit integration, this still occurs.
In the network configuration dialog, the "profile" tab should be
available without the need to first press the "unlock" button
