It looks like this unicode control character 0x7f made it to the main database. Is `0x7f` a permitted control character, or did it simply slip through some validation checks?\r\n\r\nAs an example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/node/3188718399 - with 0x7f as first character for `phone`\r\n\r\nI'm not sure if the main API would still accept 0x7f, or if this has been fixed at some point in the past already. Also, the question comes up how to deal with existing data in the database? Would a manual clean up be an option?\r\n\r\nAs the diff files don't contain any `0x7f` character, I guess a more recent planet would be required to identify relevant objects.\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/comments/216798066","html_url":"https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/1213#issuecomment-216798066","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/1213","id":216798066,"user":{"login":"brettch","id":1034364,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1034364?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch","html_url":"https://github.com/brettch","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/brettch/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-05-04T08:58:53Z","updated_at":"2016-05-04T08:58:53Z","body":"I can't recall the thinking behind this, but it was probably me.
