Sorry.. let me check if I follow you, I should open a new bug, rather
than re-opening this one, although the symptoms of my bug appear to be
more-or-less identical to this bug?

Again, I don't understand how the hex alternate form can make sense.  If
my password were, say "deadbeef" how would network manager determine if
what I'd just entered was an 8-letter string password, or a 4-byte hex
shared key?  How is the hex key derived from the string password (i.e.
how can I check if the hex string is the correct alternate form of the
password string?).
