I heartily agree.  Unsanitized names cause problems in several contexts.
At least one reasonable start has been made at a table driven cleanup.
How about making it a part of vm?

I have heard the rationale that autosave should be made smarter in emacs
itself, but that seems like a very unsatisfactory reason not to make
vm itself less demanding on its environment, especially, as Piet demonstrates,
it's not just autosave that has trouble with unsanitized names.
