[Phpmyadmin-devel] create database: no check on the name ?

Olivier,

this *is* a valid database name: the proof is that MySQL creates it!

The valid names are defined here:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/L/e/Legal_names.html

But...  phpMyAdmin has problems dealing with those bizarre names, at least in the left frame.

IMHO, a new feature request for after 2.2.0 :)
