Title:
  palimpsest fills the name of FAT partitions with arbitrary characters

Status in “gnome-disk-utility” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  palimpsest appends to the name of FAT partitions "nA" if the original
  name is longer then 7 characters thus it is not possible to give a FAT
  partition a clean name of 8-10 characters.

  1. choose a FAT partition
  2. change it's name to "12345678"
  3. watch how "nA" gets appended to the above name.
