I use transliteration in conjunction with filefield paths.
When someone uploads a multi-part file with the name like e.g. "Picture1/3.jpg" the upload creates a new directory "picture1" in the files folder. The path to the file gets corrupted.
Is there a way to substitute the slash with some other character?

As far as i know, a forward slash is an illegal character for a file name. I'm wondering if it's even possible to use a slash in filenames on windows/unix systems?

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filename#Comparison_of_filename_limitations, the slash character is reserved in most filesystems. Please reopen if you can provide a way to reproduce this bug.
