No, just the opposite. The  problems are only moved (and increased) from 
the techie level (where it should belong to) to the user.
This is not a good idea IMO.
If there problems with capitalization of certain characters exist then 
these problems should be solved or
if that's not possible for some reason such characters should not be 
allowed in file systems.

But giving it all over to the user and tell him  "We did not know how to 
handle this mess, just try yourself" is not a solution.
