Handle illegal Windows filename characters

[cryzed]

Currently it's possible to create projects with names that contain characters which are illegal in Windows systems, causing the creation to fail silently. Maybe this should be handled differently by either showing an error or managing the project metadata in a different way, not directly through the filenames contained in the projects folder -- this would allow arbitrary characters in project names.

Are there any plans to handle this issue or is it not something that will likely ever be addressed?
(only asking since 6 months later there is still no response addressing the concern)

I don't own an Windows machine and I have no idea what characters are invalid. Any help will be appreciated.
