I did play around a bit with this briefly but had trouble. However now
that I sat down again and bothered looking at error output I saw that
it was something as simple as character encoding.

Not being entirely fluent in Python it'd be nice if someone could say
whether the error below is caused by the Python-NetworkManager
str(val) return value or the commotion_applet_support.py call - and
what the proper way to internationalize it would be :)

I'll post this in a related bug tracker too, but the following error
was raised when trying to connect with the Gnome applet on a system
where some profiles have non-ascii characters (more specifically 'å'):
