This is a bit surprising since non-sideloaded games don't have that restriction. For example, + is not allowed, even though my non-sideloaded copy of Cave Story+ is listed without issue.
Feature description

I suppose the idea of having the game directory name matching the game title make things more intuitive for the user, although it has the problems mentioned in this issue.
It would be great to hear from the team about this, based on their feedback I can work on a PR to address the problems reported in this issue.
