But, I think IS allows to have user name with spaces by changing the relevant regex in user-mgt.xml file.. Then, we need to think about some unique value where IS does not allow.. Can't we introduce a config file to add this default value ? Then, it is the responsibility of the server-admin to configure it accordingly..
