Comment:

 I've replaced the string concatenation there with %s:

 clone/commits/612f60917242a0fd59953eece0a0c884a7b5d04b

 #2023 isn't quite as related as it appears at first glance; it's a lower-
 level problem involving the use of non-UTF-8 encodings (which can't be
 detected reliably), and involves problems of D-Bus marshaling. It's
 probably best addressed in a separate patch.

 I've gone ahead and marked it for code review; the test case follows.
 Reviewers can consult the two commits I linked above, or the cloned

 |TestCase|

 1. Ensure a wireless network exists nearby with an SSID containing one or
 more characters in the set "&<>".
 2. In Sugar, go to the Neighborhood view, and locate the icon for the
 above wireless network. Ensure the SSID appears in the menu when you
 mouseover the icon.
 3. Connect to the above network in Sugar.
 4. Bring up the Frame. Mouseover the circular network icon in the lower-
 right-hand corner. Ensure the SSID appears in this menu.
