This list of file name requirements is comprehensive but it is sometimes difficult to figure out why a give file name does not meet Box’s requirements:

Would someone please design a tool to identify which of these rules a given file name breaks?  Maybe just a series of regex tests could find what human eyes do not see.

Thank you for reading this suggestion.
