Changes (by SergeyBiryukov):

 * keywords:  has-patch => has-patch has-screenshots


Comment:

 In [attachment:2821.2.patch]:
 * Runs the plugin name through `remove_accents()`.
 * Strip any non-ASCII characters.
 * Run the rest through `sanitize_title_with_dashes()`.

 If the slug turns out to be empty, an error message is displayed:
 > The plugin has an unsupported name. Plugin names can only contain latin
 letters (A-z), numbers, spaces, and hyphens. Please change the `Plugin
 Name:` line in your main plugin file and upload it again.

 Suggestions for better text welcome :)
