Limit the use of special characters for PW items

An issue we've had with using PW Drive alongside PW Explorer is that some users create folders or files that make use of character that Windows don't allow for folder or file names.

We would like to be able to limit the use of certain character across either a project or a datasource.

This is also an issue when trying to export files from PW Explorer to Windows.

    this would be useful as a setting in the datasource. It could be the default setting but also deactivated on datasources that require a less conventional approach.
