This bug report is conflating three separate issues.

First, you can tap "Continue" while a Wi-Fi password prompt is up. This
is because the password prompt is implemented using a notification
bubble when it should use a dialog -- which, like all dialogs, should
block you from tapping anything in the screen behind it.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking#wi-fi-authenticating>

Second, whether you authenticate to a closed network, or try to join an
open network, the setup doesn't wait to see whether the connection
actually worked -- it just marches merrily on. The case of a closed
network would be fixed by replacing the notification bubble with the
authentication dialog, because that dialog should stay open so that you
can make corrections if the authentication didn't work.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking#wi-fi-connecting-dialog> But that
wouldn't address the case of an open network. If an open network refuses
your connection attempt, for example, you should have the chance to
choose a different network instead before carrying on to the next step.

Third, if you fail to connect to a network and can't fix the problem,
and no other networks are available, it's not clear how you can then
skip the step altogether.
