Unable to delete keypairs with consecutive underscores in their names

[Michael McCune]

According to this nova source[1], keypair names can have any combinations of numbers, letters, spaces, hyphens, and underscores. When attempting to delete keypairs with consecutive underscores in their names the keypairs are not deleted and occasionally an info popup is displayed.

steps to reproduce:

test 1
1. create a keypair with the name "__a"
2. delete the keypair with the button on it's line

result is an info box with the text "Please select a row before taking that action."

test 2
1. create a keypair with the name "a__"
2. delete the keypair with the button on it's line

result is no change in the list.

This only appears to be an issue when the name has multiple consecutive underscores. This appears to only happen through the dashboard as these keypairs can be deleted by name from the `nova` cli tool.

If the keypairs are selected using the checkboxes and deleted en masse using the global delete button then they are successfully deleted.

I have tried to reproduce this bug on the master branch but not succeeded.
I have created keypairs start with the name "__a/a__" and deleted the keypair with the button on its line.

Vishal, It was reported in 2015 and the Angular panel was implemented at 2017.
You need to try the Django-based implementation to reproduce this.
IIRC, in the Django-based table implementation, "double underscores" is handled specially, so I guess this bug is valid.
