select ASCII characters

                 Key: ACCUMULO-241
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-241
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.3.5
            Reporter: John Vines
             Fix For: 1.3.6


We currently whitelist our visibility labels to only allow alphanumerics and a 
few select delimiting characters. While we strive for human-readable labels, we 
should instead utilize a blacklist approach where we disallow parentheses, 
ampersands, pipes, and any non-ASCII characters. This will provide users with 
more flexibility in labeling, while still sticking to human readability.
