Sebb commented on VFS-203:
--------------------------

Unix paths can contain anything apart from NUL.
Path segments can obviously not contain '/' so filenames cannot contain '/' or 
NUL.

However some characters are treated specially by the Unix shell(s), and have to 
be escaped.
This does not mean that they cannot be used in file names.
E.g. ? * ( ) ; space NL [and quite a few others]

> FileObject..getName().getURI() returns URIs with spaces

> Windows supports file names with spaces and '#'. AFAIK spaces are not allowed 
> in URIs and # will be interpreted as an URI fragment.
