To address my previous point, the specification for the "Connect to the Internet" step now moves authentication to a standard wi-fi authentication dialog that appears when you choose "Connect...". That way, subtleties like password length checking (and even non-password authentication) don't need to be reimplemented inside Ubiquity.
