I found a workaround for that issue. What you need to do is to change
the encryption algorithm of your private key to DES, like that:

openssl rsa -des3 -in keyfile.pem -out keyfile-new.pem

Don't forget to set a passphrase, and then select the new keyfile from
GUI. After that, the "Unencrypted private keys are insecure" message
disappears for good.

Apparently, Network Manager does not support some kinds of encryption
properly.
