DO NOT TEST FOR DANGEROUS CHARACTERS! MAKE SURE YOU ONLY HAVE THE 
SAFE ONES!

If you try to test for the KNOWN dangerous characters (whatever that 
means at the moment) you are bound to forget one. And get bitten 
later. Always make sure the data you get from the user are sefe, 
never try to find out whether they are unsafe.
