--- Comment #2 from Henry Pfeil  ---
I looked at the relevant code. This problem lies with the CDDB database. It
appears that the db is sullied by children misusing Windows submissions: full
of spaces, apostrophes, parentheses, semicolons, commas, mixed case, different
languages and all. This would be a monster task to impose standards-compliancy
upon the existing entries, not so much for new entries after the screens are in
place. A few sed and tr statements in the get-cddb functions would fix it, but
violations of file-naming standards is in cddb.org, not K3b. Since it is
relatively easy for me to fix the mess in post-processing, this is not a bug.
Who knows who enforces international file-naming standards. Me, I'm more
focused upon 'works only in Windows' webbage, making folks aware of
https://validator.w3.org and http://www.anybrowser.org/campaign when I can no
longer log in to pay my bills because some moron hired a code jockey who is
capable only of manipulating a Windows html-design gooey.

spaces are allowed in windows and in linux.

I am hoping to help keep filenames confirming to rules of as many systems as
practical/reasonable.

Windows/Mac/Linux...
There are many variations in all of that that I am not familiar with, but I
would want to limit the path to 256 characters, and typeable characters,  no
emojis, no escape characters...   where /and \ are only used for directory
