SIM cards come PIN-locked by default over here, and there is no out-of-
the box way of unlocking it without inserting it into a phone that is
capable of doing so. NetworkManager does not store the PIN in the
keyring, so there's a PIN prompt at every login. Actually, there are
currently two PIN unlock dialogues, a small one, a larger, more
descriptive one, and a small, plain one. Without auto-connect, I get the
larger PIN unlock dialogue at login, and the smaller one if I try to
unlock the device later on. Sometimes, it appears to me that both are
created at once and one tries to close the other, but that does not
impair functionality.

The idea of setting the connection of auto-connect was to enter the PIN
and have NM connect automatically afterwards, now it's two more clicks.
