Description of problem:
Password to unlock certificate is logged to /var/log/messages
May 29 19:46:42 localhost NetworkManager[4791]: destroy_one_secret: destroying
********
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-openvpn-0.8.999-1.fc15.x86_64
Additional info:
I would love to have the option to type the password at connection time instead
of it being stored, but adding the password to the system log is wrong
