Hey ho hossa, its not only that "broken of an OS", but a lot of 
transport file systems don't support these characters too, and
i doubt that you have that tons of gigabytes to store everything on hard 
disk, so at one time or another one will want to use reccmds.conf,
and this really gets very annoying, when scripts do abort, due to the
magic chars used in recording names (') is my anti favorite.
"mplayer -identify" output also is _very_ hard to parse sometimes.

but that's just my 2cents
