--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
The Journal cannot display entries with null/empty/no title on a USB
stick. Unnamed entries can be copied to them; just not
restored/edited/etc. from them.
This is a regression since 802 seems to support this {and 802 untitled
items do get upgraded to have 10.1.3 metadata; it's just the GUI that is
broken}. However cross-version testing is not required to reproduce this
issue.
Reproduction:
1. Create a Write or Paint document. Set the Activity's title to be a
completely empty string (with no whitespace either) before quitting/saving
the entry.
2. The entry from #1 should appear in the Journal with a title like
"Untitled" {or otherwise appropriately translated}.
3. Copy this entry to a USB stick. You will get a ".odt" or ".png" file
literally named such in the root directory. If there already is one, you
will get ".png_1", ".png_2", etc. entries.
4. Look at the USB stick. If it has a recent 10.1.3 build the .Sugar-
Metadata area will have ".odt.{metadata|preview}" or
".png.{metadata|preview}" as appropriate. However the Sugar Journal's
view of the USB stick will miss the file from Step #1 as if it doesn't
exist.
