So you believe that "+" should be allowed in filesystem names?  (As opposed
to filenames where there is no such restriction?)

Ok... I misread this that file names are restricted that way. However
I still think all characters which are used by the urlencoding system
should be allowed, including "%" and "+". And please BAN the usage of
white spaces (space, TAB, newline, cr).
