Description

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1087628
Description of problem:
When user begins creating a host, enters a string in the Name field, and submits, they are told "must not include periods and is invalid". It turns out the UI itself is adding this "."!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite-6.0.3-RHEL-6-20140404.0

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hosts > New Host
2. for Name, enter the value "abcdef"
3. Hit the submit button (yes, obv. there are other things that need to get filled out to create a host, but inconsequential for this test)
4. View results.

Actual results:
error message: "must not include periods and is invalid"
sure enough, a "." is added to the end of the string (it reads "abcdef."

Expected results:
No extraneous "."!

Additional info:
Occurs in Chrome and FF.
