v4 -> v5 schematic conversion, symbol name corner case

 

Hi,

Is there anything in the schematic rescue or parsing code to handle the change in valid characters (removal of ':' and '/')?

An internal translation when reading a pre v5 symbol or library that translates all ':' to '<COLON>' and '/' to '<SLASH>', would save the few miserable people who will get caught by this a lot of time.
