When selecting a previously unknown wireless network, I am not getting prompted for the password. NetworkManager just complains in /var/log/messages that "Access point {name} has security, but secrets are required", then gives up.

I figured out that I can launch nm-connection-editor, and find my way to an obscure dialog where I can enter the wireless password, but this seems wrong. As I recall, selecting an previously unknown network from nm-applet, should result in me being automatically prompted for the password, directly. (...)

Have you tried nm-applet from Gnome fallback just to check if the same happens? 

If it works on Gnome fallback, you may use the old nm-applet from GNOME 3's fallback mode on GNOME Shell by running the following command as root:
# mv /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/status/network.js /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/status/network.disabled

and then logout and login.

You may need to re-run this command after a GNOME Shell upgrade.

NOTE: nm-applet does not integrate well with GNOME Shell experience.
