Description of problem:
gnome-bluetooth-manager: illegal configuration key, nothing happens
when clicking on "Properties".

Hunting down other problems I've noted that gnome-bluetooth-manager
tries to create a configuration directory named "Gnome Bluetooth
Manager". gconfd rejects this request since the key contains blanks.
The message at console when starting the application is:

(Bluetooth Device Manager:20523): GConf-CRITICAL **: file
gconf-client.c: line 553 (gconf_client_add_dir): assertion
`gconf_valid_key (dirname, NULL)' failed

I suspect that this is related to the fact that nothing happens when I
click on the "Properties" menu entry.

I also think that there should be a bug filed on gconfd for this: it
rejects the configuration key without any type of info like logging
etc. I've verified this in the source. Will not file such a bug
though; I've the necessary diffs to enable logging by now :-)
