I dont know if it could be exploited to do XSS by loading a malicious dive log.  I couldnt find any other user-inputted text that behaves like this, only the displayed filter set save names.

OK, I think that's fixed in master now.

>> - Perdix BLE downloads worked OK with the builtin MBP bluetooth, BUT in the bluetooth "Choose Bluetooth download mode" popup, the panel which shows the discovered BT devices show their names/uuids with white text on white background :-(. Clicking on a device name makes the text show up, but its not friendly to a new user who doesnt know how it is supposed to look.

Also fixed in master.
