*sigh* No, you are forcing Romanized a-zA-Z. What about accented characters?

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.
