Does this problem occur with other new project wizards or just the JET one?

This problem exists in project wizards "Feature Project" and "Feature Patch". It also appears in the wizards "Plug-in Project" and "Fragment Project" but these wizards specifically display a warning message to the user if he enters invalid characters while it is missing in  "JET,"Feature Project" and "Feature Patch" wizards.

Please refer to the discussion in these related bugs (Bug 363312 , Bug 81994 ).

What exactly are you wanting changed?  Arabic characters are not supported in plug-in names (bug 81994).  the 'Jet Transformation Project' wizard is not provided by PDE so for any changes there you would have to file a bug against the provider.

We found the same issue happened with GB18030 characters in Jet Transformation Project wizard.

We also think that a warning message should be displayed to the user mentioning that Default Java package may only contain [a-zA-Z0-9] plus period (.) and underscore (_).

Hi,
We are not sure what is the provider of 'Jet Transformation Project' you means, is it M2T/JET? should we change the product owned to M2T? Thank you~

Moving to M2T/JET for comment.  Please move again if this is the wrong component.  There does not appear to be any changes required to PDE.  The extra characters are not supported in the bundle name, but are respected in the project name for the standard PDE new plug-in wizard.

The field that is being referred to is a Java package name field which has to follow Java naming conventions. Which is why all of the non-english characters are replaced by underscores here, which makes for a valid java package name.

This is a works as designed scenario
