Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xfce4-panel

Hello,

I'm using Xubuntu Jaunty 9.04 x86_64 version.

The bug is in the "Launcher" applet provided by xfce4-panel

dr...@08:33:02 [0] <0>:~$ apt-cache policy xfce4-panel
xfce4-panel:
  Installé : 4.6.0-1ubuntu1
  Candidat : 4.6.0-1ubuntu1
 Table de version :
 *** 4.6.0-1ubuntu1 0
        500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/universe Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status


I've created a new launcher with the following parameters :
name => GCStar OAV & Dessins Animes
Description => Liste de OAV & Dessins Animés

I was expecting that when I will place the cursor over the icon of the 
Launcher, I will get a tooltip with the name and the description.
But I'm just getting the icon in the tooltip, without any text, unlike the 
other launcher created.

If I change the name and the description in order to remove the "&" character 
like :
name => GCStar OAV et Dessins Animes
Description => Liste de OAV et Dessins Animés
Both are displayed in the tooltip.

If a "&" remains in one of the name or description field of the
launcher, only the icon is displayed in the tooltip.

Adding a backslash before the "&" (for escaping it like in shell
script), have no effect.

To illustrate the problem, I made some screenshots :
