That is indeed an unfriendly bug. I had a look tonight at all the
stuff you pointed to and I was able to make somewhat of a fix.  The
good news is I was able to get it to sort and in fact sort by all
columns instead of just the first as was previously there. The only
problem is I haven't gotten it to work with the privilege escalation
(what happens after you click on the keys icon) exactly. I'll try to
get that finished off tomorrow. I'll attach a patch to the gnome and
Launchpad bugs if/when I get it all finished off.
