I would suggest that, since the strings you propose will be filenames, they also not contain any characters that are interpreted (e.g. '', '/') or not accepted by all filesystems.

yes of course. i stripped that from my already very long email under the assumption, that nobody will be able to construct a file with an invalid filename, and even less be able to upload it, anyhow :-)

so the valid characters are all valid filename characters for mainstream filesystems with the exception of parentheses and square brackets. (which is a rather vague definition as well)
