The "bug" in gnunet-gtk with respect to pseudonyms may just be a 
misunderstanding on my part. I assume that pseudonyms are locally synonymous 
to namespaces in a non-hex format.

I use gnunet-gtk to create pseudonym "MyPseudonym" with password "password".
gnunet-pseudonym-list returns "MyPseudonym not decrypted"
All the options under Advanced-Insert into Namespace are grayed out (nothin' 
happens when I click on 'em).

Possibilities:
1. I'm not doing somthing that needs to be done so that gnunet-gtk will let me 
insert stuff into a namespace I've created. Help.
2. There is a bug in gnunet-gtk.
3. The developers added a menu options for insertion into a namespace but 
never programmed in functionality for those options and neglected to mention 
it in the changelog. Unlikely, since the process is discussed in the 
documentation.

As it happens, Advanced-Assemble Directory is suffering from the same problem. 
And I have absolutely no idea what Advanced-Reset File Identifiers is even 
supposed to do.

The option to search a namespace will undoubtedly be useful, but I'm not sure 
where I'm supposed to get the namespace in HEX format from.

That makes life easier :-)

P.S. My ISP thinks I am spamming you due to the frequency of our little
