Bug Description

When a notification on the messages menu contains the | character (in my case a nickname in xchat), the process unity-panel-service crashes with:

Confirmed, way to trigger it easily
- connect to IRC using xchat-gnome with messaging menu integration enabled
- connect with another client and a nickname including a "|"
- talk to the first client

-> segfault

Lars, could you have a look to this one?
