Console view crashes when category starts with a number (or has a dot?)

[pitrou]

You can see it when clicking on the "console" link at top here:  http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/waterfall The console view crashes because it doesn't find a category named ".7.stable". Actually, a category "2.7.stable" exists. It seems the console view tries to strip the leading number of category names (or perhaps this is because of the dot?).

On the debug page which is generated:  http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/console we see that indeed the items in the "categories" list are wrong:

List instance @ 0x954d10c
Dictionary instance @ 0xb2d1446cL
'name'	'.7.stable'
'size'	11
Dictionary instance @ 0xb372146cL
'name'	'.7.unstable'
'size'	20
[etc.]

(this should have been "2.7.stable", "2.7.unstable"...) ... while the keys in the "slaves" dictionary are right.

And of course the fix is trivial:
