Comment:

 Hey @dominicme, thanks for the report!

 It '''really''' sounds like the fault `mod_security`, an Apache module
 some hosts run that blocks requests with certain "suspicious" text.
 Definitely not anything in WordPress core, and not really something we can
 work around. I'd contact your host.
