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.

(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.
