So this looks like a crash in the editor, and based on some other traces
Michael provided last week could be an issue in the NM OpenVPN plugin.
I tried to reproduce the issue (with a given sample .ovpn file) last
week but couldn't using 0.9.10.2.  Are you able to provide a openvpn
connection file that I can try the import with?
