On a similar issue to Warren's
post[*1] about spaces in user names, when my users sign up they can't use an apostrophe. So the names O'Brien or O'Connell have to be written as OBrien and OConnell. (This is an Irish website, so names beginning O'* are common.)
If someone does put in O'Brien it goes in to the profile as just O.
Any ideas?

The removal of single quotes is on purpose, to avoid SQL injections. But I guess we should be more verbose about it in this particular instance (i.e. warn the user that their username has been changed) ...
