This happens on all four computers where I put oneiric (3 upgraded from
natty, 1 fresh install). The behaviour is always the same:

1. I start with wifi configured and wireless password set and stored in keyring. Everything works.
2. When network-manager tries to reconnect (after a signall loss or something), it shows dialog asking for wireless password with password pre-filled. When confirmed, wifi connects, but wireless password from keyring is gone.
3. Next connection attempt(s) always ask for password, no password is pre-filled and the entered password is not stored into keyring.
4. After adding back the password using nm -connection-editor, I go back to 1.

It looks like the nm dialog (unlike nm-connection-editor) is not able to store passwords into keyring, so the password is eventually gone. The package versions are:
gnome-keyring 3.2.1-0ubuntu1
network-manager 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu5

Needless to say this is very annoying and keeps me from upgrading on my
main computer.

Title:
  (oneiric) wireless passwords not remembered

Status in “gnome-keyring” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  With an up to date (as of 20 Sept) Oneiric beta, I have to re-enter the wireless password for all of my standard networks every time I log in. Expected behaviour is that Ubuntu remembers them.  This is a regression from previous behaviour
