Bug Description
This is happening when :
Generating QrCode for "Wifi Network" with WPA
And
Using semicolon charachter for password.
In that case, charachters after semicolon are not included in the QRcode. For example if you have "abcd;efgh01234" as password, generated QRCode, will _just_ include "abcd" part.

Thanks a lot for reporting this issue! This is the kind of bug we can only find by users running into problems ...
In order to have all information about the bug here I have to correct the report:
The password is completely encoded in the QR code, but the decoding process typically assumes that special characters (\ ; , : ) should be escaped by a \, which is not done in Qreator. See: [1]
