I have no interest in this issue, but I have great interest in another fix within 1.8.10-2ubuntu3 bionic-proposed release, so I have verified this issue has been fixed.

Reproduction involved launching nm-applet, attempting to connect to an AP with & in the name and seeing the following get written to stdout:

> (nm-applet:2164): Gtk-WARNING **: 02:38:16.256: Failed to set text 'REDACTED&' from markup due to error parsing markup: Error on line 1: Entity did not end with a semicolon; most likely you used an ampersand character without intending to start an entity - escape ampersand as &

Then bionic-proposed network-manager-gnome was installed, and the steps repeated. Now no error message gets printed.
