Description Marius Gedminas 2016-06-20 11:49:53 UTC 
I've a setting with the following value:

    $ dconf read /org/gtimelog/sender
    'Marius Gedminas <marius@pov.lt>'

If I launch dconf-editor (git master built today with jhbuild) and navigate to /org/gtimelog/, I get the following warning on the console (twice)

    (dconf-editor:18999): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text '<b>'Marius Gedminas <marius@pov.lt>'</b>' from markup due to error parsing markup: Klaida eilutėje 1 simbolyje 44: „marius@pov.lt“ nėra tinkamas vardas: „@“

and also the setting value for "sender" is incorrectly shown to be blank.

(If I then click on the 'sender' row, I can see the value.)

Thanks for reporting the bug, I should have seen that error coming. It’s corrected in master (.20 doesn’t have this problem), by using CSS instead of markup tags.
