    Now that Vista uses breadcrumb navigation (folder > sub-folder > sub-folder 2), will we be able to include \/:*?"<>| in file names?

    I have a lot of songs (and other files) that are named with time (11:11), slashes (Reckoning/Revelling), and question marks (Did you ever?), and I find it annoying that I'm not allowed to do so.
