The issue here is the range of characters we want to consider as completely
"safe" in filenames. Currently this is the set [A-Za-z0-9._-]. Aside from the
obviously "dangerous" characters, I would prefer not to see characters such 
as spaces in filenames (even if most OS's do support it).

I remember someone was going to write some code to allow Samba to pass a 
document title to LPRng. Not sure if that got off the ground.
