I fixed this bug in one place, and introduced it in another. If you
change your preferences, it loses your LDAP domain, which causes you
to lose your nova credentials. Previously it would lose your
credentials when you closed and reopened your browser with a
long-lived token.

There's an open bug on this and I plan on having it fixed soon. For
now, if you change your preferences, you'll need to log out and log
back in.
