Having "safe" filenames can be very beneficial. I use them all the time as
a way to make very human-readable URLs, without sprawling masses of crap. I
know not everyone in this group feels the need to have properly-manicured
URLs, but I do.
Do you hate the md5() function, too? All that does is turn a
perfectly-readable message into 32 characters of crap. I suppose we should
ditch that and wipe out the creator's family with attack helicopters.
I didn't think his question prompted such a response. It's a perfectly
reasonable question.
