I managed to enter a tab and newline by copy and pasting them into the song 
edit title textbox.
So we need to 
1. Ensure these characters can't be entered/pasted into the title textbox.
2. Ensure song imports strip them out too
3. Perhaps change the Re-index Songs to strip out any that exist already so 
people can fix their data.
4. Bullet proof the song export to remove invalid characters. Note it didn't 
crash for newline or \ / : etc, only for tab.

Title:
  Invalid file name characters in song name causes OpenLyrics to crash

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  http://support.openlp.org/issues/465

  Certain invalid file name characters can appear in song names. (in
  this example a tab, but new line, and others)

  This causes the OpenLyrics exporter to crash. These be stripped from
  the file name. Ideally they would also be caught, and reported as a
  song error to the user.
