Comment(by sivel):

 There are numerous characters that are not allowed in file names.  And in
 addition there are characters that are allowed in windows but not in *nix
 and vice versa.  In addition if you use a special character that would
 need escaping there are certain instances where the escape character '\'
 would be added to the filename.  I could go on, but my opinion is this is
 needed.
