@ Alaric

This problem existed pre-Karmic and as such should not be considered a
regression.   Furthermore, the case outlined here is not the typical use
case, as NM should automatically re-connect a hidden network that's been
previously connected.   Unfortunately, drivers don't always support the
ability to scan for a specific ESSID ( that's how NM is able to detect
that the hidden AP is available ), and there's not much NM can do about
it... although one could argue that if the driver isn't fully capable,
the feature should be disabled in the UI.

As for landing in Karmic, the plan was to try and get 0.8~rc2 released
as an SRU for Karmic, however if that's not excepted then a stable
version will be pushed to the NM main PPA.
