  [phone] Leaving WiFi coverage often leads to the password dialog being
  displayed indefinitely

Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products:
  Confirmed
Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Steps:
  * connect to a password-protected WiFi network
  * suspend the phone
  * turn the WiFi off or leave the network's covered area
  * resume the phone

  Expected:
  * phone is connected via a GSM data connection

  Current:
  * phone is connected via a GSM data connection
  * there is a WiFi password dialog displayed for a network that isn't in range any more (and for which the password is known)

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking#wi-fi-authenticating>: "If the
  network stops being available while the dialog is still open — for
  example, if the network is no longer in range, or if you switch into
  Flight Mode — the commit buttons should be replaced by the centered
  text “Network no longer available”, all the dialog’s controls should
  become insensitive, and two seconds later, the dialog should close."
