Bug Description

Underscores in filenames are badly interpreted as if they were meant to display some keyboard shortcuts.
But there is no such shortcuts.
"Hello_world.odt" file is wrongly displayed as "Hello<u>w</u>world.odt"

This might not be a bug exactly. Drawers is doing something here that the specification was never intended for.

The Desktop Entry specification says that Action identifiers should follow the same format as key names and...

“Only the characters A-Za-z0-9- may be used in key names.”

...so an underscore isn’t expected.

Quicklist actions are meant to be actions that programs can perform rather than arbitrary file names, so this might not be fixable.
