[news.eclipse.platform] Handling ":" in Resource names

[Trey Anastasio <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How can we handle colons in resource names?  We received content with a 
URL encoded file name from the server.  We need to create a file 
resource with the given name.  These file names may contain colons. 
Naturally Eclipse handles the colon as a newline, thus truncating 
everything from the colon onward.

I didn't notice any facilities in core.resources to handle this scenario.

Suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks.
