Right, I noticed on the F15 Live Beta TC1 that I cannot easily connect
to WPA2-Enterprise networks.  Clicking on the network in the network
icon doesn't do anything at all--no attempt to connect, no connection
editor dialog pops up, nothing.  Also, clicking Network Settings
doesn't have any way to edit the WPA2-Enterprise connection either.
The Options... button stays greyed out.

I had to go to overview mode to launch nm-connection-editor manually
just to be able to connect to the wireless network.

I think if a network requires more credentials to connect, the Gnome
Shell applet should pop up the connection editor, and/or the
Options... button on the network control panel should be active and
also launch nm-connection-editor.
