 I created a file in the pubgrid named "<<<<<..." (it's hundreds of less-
 than signs).

 (a) it is double-HTML-encoded as described in a previous bug. I bet I
 could make a huge filename that freaks out your server.

 (b) when I try to rename this file, I get "Connection was reset" error in
 my browser. This is repeatable, and specific to this file. Other actions
 in the WUI are fine.
