Bug description:
  Regression caused by bug #524358, changing the of tweet source for Me-Menu.

Using the gwibber in Ubuntu 10.10 betas, and authorising using the new OAuth method Gwibber identifies itself as "Ubuntu for Ubuntu" in the oath screen embedded in gwibber. Then when I post a tweet it shows as from "Ubuntu".

The Me-Menu should select a separate keypair to that of the native Gwibber, even if it using the same back end libraries.

  Example: http://twitter.com/popey/status/22793839865

DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10
Package: gwibber 2.31.91-0ubuntu1

In the process of fixing this regression, it may be worth setting the application name for the keypair to be "Gwibber for Ubuntu" in order to emphasis that it is not the upstream version.
