Public bug reported:

In my neighborhood, there are some wlans i don't know the PSK to and don't want to use, cause they're not mine. nm nevertheless tries to connect to them and creates an entry in nm's database. If i try to unset the 'connect automatically' checkbox, nm doesn't let me, because i didn't provide a PSK, which i don't want, don't have, and quite frankly shouldn't need to disable the wlan.
If I just delete it, nm will find the wlan again and try to auto-connect it again.
