Description Arnel Borja 2014-04-16 10:11:31 UTC 
When we open the Add to Playlists dialog then create a new playlist with a slash in the name, gnome-music crashes:

Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 233476

We should strip or escape GLib.DIR_SEPARATOR ("/").
Comment 1 Vadim Rutkovsky 2014-04-16 10:16:42 UTC 
Agreed, though we should make it generic, I'm sure there a glib-compatible way to make nice filenames for our playlists
Comment 2 Arnel Borja 2014-05-01 07:02:11 UTC 
We could also use Tracker instead to save playlists, which removes restrictions for filenames.
Comment 3 Arnel Borja 2014-06-08 16:32:32 UTC 
Fixed by porting playlists to Tracker (bug 729311).
