[Users] Network profile lost after host edit

[Lior Vernia]

Hey Simon,

It actually doesn't surprise me that it's related to the template,
because we had other issues that were template-related in this dialog.
However, I haven't been able to reproduce it myself when working from
the master branch. So either it got fixed between 3.3.1 and now, or I
just didn't try anything complex enough.

If you could find some consistent way to reproduce the bug (BTW, it's
definitely a bug and not by design), then we could determine whether it
has indeed been solved in the meantime. And if not, we'll make sure that
it's fixed.

Yours, Lior.
