           Summary: Ampersands (&) parsed when tab title is "%w"
           Product: konsole
           Version: 2.5.999
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: nrfoconnor at gmail.com


Version:           2.5.999 (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

If the program in a Konsole tab sets the xterm title to something containing an
ampersand (&), and the tab's title is set to "%w" (or I assume any string
containing %w) the tab parses it as if it were a hotkey definer (the hotkey
works, the character directly after it is underlined).

Interestingly, Konsole's window title displays the ampersand.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1: Set a tab title to %w
2: Have a program set the xterm title to a string containing & (for instance
"&example"
