Title:
  XML entities in usernames are inconsistently escaped

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  When a contact uses characters outside the ASCII range, they appear as
  their escaped XML entities throughout most parts of the UI, including:
  the contact list, the title bar, the tab. But inside the chat window,
  it appears as the intended characters.

  In this case, the user's name is "大神", and the corresponding XML
  character entity references are "&#x5927;&#x795E;".
