I'd prefer that too but there are some characters we have not choice

document name as otherwise it'll clash in the URL. Same goes for ? Vincent Massol wrote:

The good thing is that the document title can use any character.
On the other hand, I'd rather be able to use any character.
The best solution would be to escape this kind of characters, but
