you could wait for the plugin muggle-0.1.0, hopefully 
released tonight, and comment out the SetTabs(25) call 
in the file mg_actions.c. Then enter muggle and press 
the yellow button to get into the list of collections.

Muggle will show any number of cOsdItem followed by 
one cMenuEditStrItem. The cOsdItems must not have tabs
(they show the names of existing collections)
but cMenuEditStrItem currently needs one (it is used
to create a new collection).

With no tab set, the [] brackets do not appear.

The cleanest solution would be if cMenuEditStrItem
places the [] directly behind the prompt if no Tab is set,
I think.

My workaround was to use a cStatus object which lets
me specify different tabs for different lines.

If you want to I could extend the hello plugin to 
show the problem but only next week.
