Description

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

Gecko codes that are added via the Cheat Code Editor dialog can be temporarily ill-formed if the cheat code name happens to include the creator name.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Right-click on any game and open the Properties dialog.
Switch to the Gecko Codes tab.
Press the Add New Code... button.
In the Cheat Code Editor dialog:
- Enter This is a test [Jane Doe] in the Name: field.
- Enter 01234567 00000000 in the Code: field.
- Press Save.
Observe that the newly added code is now in the list, and appears to be enabled.
Close the Properties dialog.
Right-click on the same game and open the Properties dialog again.
Observe that the newly added code has been inadvertently disabled (it was never really enabled!).
