"Hw src addr (unresolved)" column shows resolved MAC addresses when View: Name
Resolution: MAC resolution set

When I add this column to my visible columns set, the column contents should
_always_ be _unresolved_ MAC addresses (or any other L2 addresses?). The View:
Name Resolution option overrides the "(unresolved)" column setting (if MAC
resolution ON, the column displays 'resolved' MAC addresses, even though the
column itself states that is shows 'unresolved' hw addresses). This shouldn't
happen, as there are separate columns for:
- unresolved hw address
- resolved hw address
- hw address (only this column should discern, whether MAC address resolution
is actually enabled or not).

Cheers.
