Hi Callum,

Until the problem has been fixed in Glade, you can either make it the
empty string (but that is sort of inconvient to work with then in
Glade), or you can make the string something like "     " (a number of
spaces). Then you can still click on the label in Glade, but we can
simply translate it literally so that our statistics are not affected.
