Description
When renaming a virtual machine to a name containing "/", an error appears about VM folder not being able to be moved. The slash is a very useful symbol in names and should be supported.

It's just a display name, it should be supported no matter the underlying path is.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
The slash (/) is a directory separator in some platforms (actually on everything except Windows) and it can definitely NOT be supported. Use a dash (-) or an underscore (_) instead.
