mhmm i agree that there might be some characters that can make problem.

in that case I'd rather just 'die' if we encounter a base image with problematic characters,
instead of treating it as having no parent?

I can't exactly remember the context of this patch, but we now disallow
base images for imported volumes altogether, so not sure if it is still necessary
to allow such paths for parents
(file based storages can't have a space in the path, and neither can have volume ids
created with our api)
