Private Conversations settings

Hi,
On my forum, every username is allowed. For example names as Lovely= Crazy,. et cetera. Also usernames ending with a comma. In private conversations, de separation sign between names is a comma. So when I want to send a conversation to someone with username (for example) Saved, it won't work, because the name is ending with a comma. How can I change the separation sign in for example a +?
Kind regards.

There is no clean way to do that. If you look at /applications/conversations/controllers/class.messagescontroller.php line 75 you find
$to = explode(',', $this->Form->getFormValue('To', ''));which shows that there is no configuration value for that.Changing that value here will not be enough. There is also the JavaScript snippet that allows to add more users. In /applications/conversations/js/conversations.js line 91 you see
author = author.split(",");where that character must be changed, too.To my understanding there should be at least a third code occurance where you have to change that, since all the user names are inserted to the form with the comma as the separator sign. I did not see it by doing the quick search through the code I did right now.
But in order to make that work, you have to change the source code and that is always bad. You should disallow such silly names...
