Bug Description

Behavior was changed in libappindicator or one of the underlying libraries, and SSID names now appear with double underscores.

A patch was added to duplicate the underscore as a way to escape them from being caught as accelerators (see bug 685588) for the SSIDs. Now that behavior was changed in libappindicator or dbusmenu, this change should be reverted to correctly display the exact name of wireless networks.
