Bug #12968
open
We cannot used non-latin name in Technique Editor for Technique Name
Description
I wnted to create a Technique with name "Зарегистрируйтесь" - but it prevented me to create the Technique, as the Bundle name became __________________________
Зарегистрируйтесь is a totally valid bundle name (but it does canonify to __________________________ though)

simply allowing non-ascii in the JS is not enough, as it fails to create the file

- Severity set to Minor - inconvenience | misleading | easy workaround
- User visibility set to Getting started - demo | first install | Technique editor and level 1 Techniques
- Priority changed from 0 to 44
I'm setting it to "minor" because the workaround it rather simple to find (it's a common problem). But that bug is really a pitty :/

It's a bit tricky because we use the regex [^_a-zA-Z\\d]
If we want to match non-latin characters, I think we can use \p{L} to match letter that are not Latin, but it will include characters that we don't want ($,{}, @ etc)
I think we should list all characters that we definitely don't want
