Summary:
Internet Accounts PrefPane can't add new Twitter Accounts despite correct credentials

Steps to Reproduce:
Open System Preferences > Internet Accounts, try to add an existing Twitter account. Click on the Twitter Item in the right hand list. (The + button is curiously disabled in the left hand list.) Enter Twitter handle and the correct password to create the account.

Expected Results:
The account should be created, provided the correct password is given.

Actual Results:
Despite giving a correct password which works in other applications and the twitter website, Internet Accounts.PrefPane refuses the password as incorrect.

Regression:
Fully Restarting OS X allows the Account to be created with the same password that did not work before.

Notes:
The new password item is saved to Local Items.keychain instead of the user selected default keychain.
