On my side, users upload attachements with é à / ~ in their names because they 
can and they are not aware that it causes some troubles later.

Those who were trapped do not include special characters anymore but a new user 
would certainly include those characters.

Thanks, Emmanuel. I'll do that.

Anyway, don't you think this issue is worth a JIRA issue? I supposed a 
discussion here is not needed to create such an issue, but I would like 
to know if there is some reason to allow all this characters like /, \ 
or ~ that cause problems with documents and attachments names. Of course 
it could be considered a naming convention not to use this characters, 
but if we/I what to promote the use of XWiki among users that are not 
aware of this problems and usually use this characters (and others like, 
ñ, á, é, ö,... ) while naming files and folders.

Thanks for your opinions!

Ricardo
