[Bug 1407907] Re: [phone] Leaving WiFi coverage often leads to the password dialog being displayed indefinitely

 

The password dialog is a notification as any other, if we don't want to
ask for the password when locked, the network indicator should make sure
of that.

But, why would we do that? What's the issue? When you have indicators
on, you can even connect to a new WiFi network, so you need the dialog
shown?

** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid
