If it's allowable in Linux and Windows (and as far as know on MacOS too), the question is: why is '+' replaced with '_' in the library file name?

Given that '#', '$', '&', '-' etc are not replaced.

I get why \/:*?"<>| are replaced, but not anything else. And I'm not 100% certain it's been ever thus.
