The clone repository dialog has "Store in Secure Store" checked by default.  It then doesn't allow you to Finish the dialog if you don't successfully enter your secure storage password.  This occurs even if the repository doesn't require a password (e.g. by using ssh keys)!

When prompted for a secure storage password, the UI should still allow the user to proceed if the password is unknown (i.e. the user presses cancel), and in this case just not remember the password.
