Not really a bug?
Try to register a new user with quotes.
System throws the following error:
Invalid character used in Username.


Sorry, sometimes read it line by line would help :)
Yes, if you change your display name it's possible to set quotes.
So we should not allow quotes in names.
# dpkg-reconfigure brain
