screenshot of prompt

The host identity unknown prompt has a couple problems.

We put the hostname in parenthesis which is not great since the hostname can have parens already and it is different from what we do elsewhere in gvfs and nautilus.

The text itself is a little unclear and I think "remote computer" is redundant if you are also saying the system name.
