Think about storing a file named this:

   This: is a \ stoopid example?


Works just fine on Linux - you can store the ":", "\" and "?" just fine.
Not so on Windows - the ":" is a problem.
And OS X will translate the ":" to a "/" (for display).

And that example shows problems that exist even WITHOUT UTF-8.
