Public bug reported:

Steps to replicate:
1. Connect to an SSID with ONLY three numbers in the nm-applet menu.
2. Input password, wait for it to fail.
3. Note the new ssid it asks for is now a unicode symbol.

What should happen:
The SSID should be the SSID, dangit! :p

Workaround: rename the SSID in the Network Connections manually and set
it to automatically connect.

The symbol is consistent with the SSID put into unicode. Example, 323 as
an ssid would be U+323 in unicode. This seems like an escape failure in
naming the ssid. The SSID code is consistent with the settings in the
menu.
