A screenshot illustrating the problem

When editing, with a plugin, a fixed length field of an existing (or new)
record, some characters are changed when invoking the plugin (i.e. are not
correctly passed to the plugin window). (The initial values for these fields
set in .pl in variable $result are not respected as well).

The attached screenshot illustrates the problem.

This is because after switching to T::T variable names like:

<!-- TMPL_IF name="f5|" -->
or
<!-- TMPL_IF name="f8 " -->

(which were used in most of templates in /value_builder) are not allowed. In
translation process these constructs have been replaced with 

[% IF ( f5pipe ) %] 
and
[% IF ( f8 ) %]

The corresponding *.pl files remain unchanged and provide the elements in the
result hash as follows:

    my $f5  = substr( $result, 5,  1 );
[...]
    $template->param(
[...]
        "f5$f5"   => 1,

So, if there is a pipe (or a space), the has key will be "f5|" ("f5 " resp.),
which worked well with HTML::Template, but not with T::T.

The same applies most probably to MARC-21.
