Dear Maintainer,
If I want to edit some wireless network, I go to Network Settings,
select Wireless and then select Network Name from drop down menu.
However if I select the network, the NM disconnects from currently
connected one and tires to connect to selected one. It's quite an
undesired behaviour when I only need to ie. change password in network
I'm not currently connected to, try to solve problems with one network
searching solution connected to other one etc. It would be nice to have
a possibility to edit wireless network without disconnecting current
one.

This is a gnome-control-center limitation (of version 3.4).

I think this is fixed in version 3.8 (available from experimental).

In any case, reassigning to g-c-c.

Indeed, I can't reproduce the reported problem on current Debian sid.
Can you?
