Bug Description

1. Use Ubuntu Software Center to add the Nautilus Compare Extension and its Meld diff viewer option.
2. Open Nautilus in two-pane format, right-click on the first file (one containing at least one Underline character), and select "Compare later".
3. In the other pane, right-click on the second file, and note that its "Compare to" menu line misspells the other filename.
    For example, it will misspell "sign-off_est.html" as "sign-offest.html" (with the "e" underlined)!
    This was confirmed on several PC computers using Quantal.
