I have now used the kindlegen plugin on over 100 documents and would up tweaking the plugin.py just a little more to remove more characters from the title for the filename:
# replace unwanted characters in book title
title = re.sub('[/|\u2019|\u201C|\u201D|\u2024|\u2025|\u2026|\?|<|>| \\\\|:|;|\.|,|\+|=|!|&|\*|\||\"|\^|\'|\s]+', '_', dc_title.group(1))
title = title.strip("_")
You might want to consider updating your script as well, and you can probably improve on my tweaks. I was surprised by the unicode in some of the document titles and think there might be a better way to deal with this, perhaps using ranges to remove non-alphabetics? In fact, I am starting to wonder if perhaps the best bet might be to invert the sense and define a list of permitted characters and translate/trim anything else.
