Was this discussed somewhere? I don't understand why we should restrict our
filesystem naming because of limitation of auxilary filesystems. There're
even more restrictive filesystems available, we couldn't support them all.
While previous modifications looked harmless this one seems questionable to me.

I understand, this is a bikesched, but I really don't see a reason. You can't
build FreeBSD on windows anyway.
