Bug Description
I'm seeing some weird issue with the new NM + openvpn; if I create a new VPN connection, and add certificate options (verify name exactly, plus TLS auth), these options are not saved, leading to the connection failing.
The following versions lead to an invalid connection:
ii network-manager 1.12.4-1ubuntu1 amd64 network management framework (daemon and userspace tools)
ii network-
Reverting to the following versions, things work again:
ii network-manager 1.12.2-0ubuntu4 amd64 network management framework (daemon and userspace tools)
ii network-
If I use an existing connection saved with a prior version of NM, the connection will be successful. If I go open the settings, hit Apply, all advanced TLS settings are wiped.
The connection then fails:

I'm unsure whether this is NM or n-m-openvpn. Looks more like NM, since downgrading n-m-openvpn alone didn't seem to change anything.
