Apologies if it sounded dictatorial that is certainly never my intent. I was thinking that special characters should not be permitted due to the security implications of the user being able to input code into these input fields.
*sigh* No, you are forcing Romanized a-zA-Z. What about accented characters?
I personally do not believe we have been lax in our data validation,
-- With respect to unusual characters like ñ. Now you are enforcing a-zA-Z. I think we had some cross talk. I get wanting to clean inputs so you don't get the equivalent of SQL Injections and the like, but I don't get forcing a specific range that excludes diacritics. The description, which I hinted at in comment #94, found in onboarding step 4 may contain diacritics, may it not? And what about the {0,10} issue I raised in comment #88 also in onboarding step 4? And please, don't think my "it's in onboarding step 4" means it isn't elsewhere. Treat it as a class of problem, and look for it elsewhere too, because I haven't. Sorry, setting to Failed QA. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
