Binary package hint: vinagre

Intended action:
connect to a firewalled machine using VNC with SSH tunneling

Steps:
1., start Vinagre
2., Machine > Connect
3., select Protocol: VNC, fill in Host
4., check Use host [remote.host] as a SSH tunnel
5., select Connect
6., a the dialog appears saying Host: [my current username on the local machine]@[remote.host] which is not the desired login !
7., so I am asked to provide a password for a nonexistent user on the remote machine, which I obviously cannot do.

What should happen:
either on the Connect or the Password dialog box, one should have an option to provide the user name for the remote machine

Versions:
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (up-to-date)
vinagre 2.30.0-0ubuntu2
