Title:
  nm-connection-editor goes into infinite loop when trying to change
  'Password with Certificates (TLS)' VPN connection

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  To reproduce:

  $ nm-connection-editor

  Douple click an existing VPN connection

  Authentication Type -> "Password with Certificates"

  User Certificate -> click on file chooser -> select a .p12 file

  
  Expected result:

  new certificate file is accepted

  
  What happens instead:

  nm-connection-manager CPU usage goes to 100% and becomes inresponsive.

  
  This is what I see in the shell:

  
  ** (nm-connection-editor:4559): WARNING **: Invalid setting VPN: ca

  ** (nm-connection-editor:4559): WARNING **: Invalid setting VPN: ca

  ** (nm-connection-editor:4559): WARNING **: Invalid setting VPN: cert

  ** (nm-connection-editor:4559): WARNING **: Invalid setting VPN: cert

  ** (nm-connection-editor:4559): WARNING **: Invalid setting VPN: cert

  ** (nm-connection-editor:4559): WARNING **: Invalid setting VPN: ca

  (nm-connection-editor:4559): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_chooser_select_filename: assertion 'filename != NULL' failed
  ^C
  (nm-connection-editor:4559): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_file_chooser_select_filename: assertion 'filename != NULL' failed

  
  This loops over and over suggesting there is some infinite loop.


  This is on Ubuntu 13.10, network-manager is version 0.9.8.0-0ubuntu22
