Public bug reported:

This might be on purpose (so we don't leak the password on a locked
phone), but compared to unity7 the WiFi password prompt does not come
pre-filled with the password.

This makes it very annoying when you have a flaky WiFi connection, OTOH
you can cancel the prompt and click on the network in the indicator and
have NM try and reconnect with the previously set password.

Filing this so we can have a record of why it is like that.
