Title:
  Foreign characters in files within zip file cause trouble

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Hello,

  When uploading files, we ran into some problems with the zip files
  (version 1.2), e.g. when students had special characters or
  punctuation other than a fullstop in them. I know you shouldn't do
  that but there are students who just use the default name that is
  suggested by the system as file name, and if it is "Déjà maintenant,
  il y a des problèmes!" then so be it :-S ➪ Put up a little note about
  "proper” file names so that the zipped files can be extracted.
