Subject:
Error when creating ZFS Datasets with semicolon in Description.
Description:
When creating ZFS Datasets and including a semicolon in Description ie. 'User
Files: Documents, Media, etc.' the system does not create the Dataset and no
error/warning is displayed. It appears as if the Dataset has been created but
checking in SSH or trying to use it in other services does not show the folder.
Editing the Dataset to remove the semicolon does not solve the problem, it must
be deleted and recreated.

there are some prohibited chars to use in ZFS names, like raidz1, etc... of course, local charactters like ñ ç the same , and finally punctuation characters ( ,.;:+*) etc...

Please do not consider this like a bug, is a normal limitation of several services ( like SMB names, etc...)
12.1.0.4 - Ingva (revision 7743) on SUPERMICRO X8SIL-F 8GB of ECC RAM, 11x3TB disk in 1 vdev = Vpool = 32TB Raw size , so 29TB usable size (I Have other NAS as Backup)
