Bug Description
Binary package hint: empathy
one special case, didn't test others:
password: \\text
login, save, restart
login fails, password is one char short.
when adding a leading \ it's working again, so
password in password field was: \text
seems like it's escaped when saving but not escaped when loading or there's a condition with double backslahes.
