Yeah, I can only imagine how difficult is to be compatible with posix, 
win32 and the likes.

I renamed the files, in fact.

However, it seems that users working with (older?) Office for MAC use 
U+F020 more frequently than I expected, maybe because of that [1]:

"Microsoft's defunct Services For Macintosh feature used U+F001 through 
U+F029 as replacements for special characters allowed in HFS but 
forbidden in NTFS, and U+F02A for the Apple logo."

Any chances to enable a "bypass" for these characters (excluding the one 
you reserved for compatibility as explained detailed in the "Forbidden 
characters in filenames")? Maybe hidden behind a configurable option 
(even disabled by default), so to not interfere with the current 
behavior?

Thanks.
