Uploading from german umlauts graphics results in ugly names

Post by wh1sper »

If I am uploading a graphic like lübeck.jpg
the result ist lbeck.jpg in the mediadatabase
not too bad, but ugly.
My wish is a popupwindow wich asks to rename the graphic.
Not to mention that using german ulmlauts in the www is no godd idea at all, but this is an other issue ;)

You can already rename an image or specify its name when uploading - doesn't that allow umlauts already?

But still, having those special characters is something we'Re trying to avoid :)
