Much fun can also be had by using windows-illegial chracters in a Unix filename, then sharing it across to windows boxes. Files that only unix people can see! Fun!
Yes, it's annoying. The only defence I've heard is that it makes it 'easier' to type filenames, but everyone I know found it suprising, so I going with 'naughty, based on the principle of least suprise'. Not that anyone's going to fix it thesedays :)
