Title:
  Profiles won't install if special characters

Status in Mudlet:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  I was aware of this previously: When the package manager unzips, if
  there's a $ present in the system username the unzip/package install
  fails. It appears it's not just the presence of a $, it's many special
  characters.

  You group-say 'It's going to be the path /users/username/.config'
  You group-say 'if 'username' has something funky in it that might cause problems'
  You group-say 'Does your windows username have any special characters in it?'
  You group-say 'in particular a dollar sign?'
  Sobes group-says 'I think that Root profile is named in Russian'
  Sobes tells you 'yea, username is in win1251 codepage'
