imo, the single quote could be allowed in names by the spec. but the
general question remains: how to escape illegal jcr name characters?
the _x0000_ method mentioned above only applies for escaping non-valid
xml characters in names when exporting to xml. if using the same
mechanism here would probably confuse the situation.
i suggest to perform a url encoding of the non-valid characters. namely:
nonspace ::= (* Any Unicode character except:
'/', ':', '[', ']', '*',
''', '"', '|' or any whitespace
character *)
this escaping would also be a good candidate to go into the commons-jcr library.
