Hey Doug,

You can already do the illegal character setup.  It would look like this:
008	NR	FIXED-LENGTH DATA ELEMENTS--GENERAL INFORMATION
valid	[^0-9a-z|\\]	Valid Characters

So, you can update your validation rules file to add a capital letter as acceptable (so an X is acceptable) -- you can add a blank space to the validation characters -- that would allow the space to be valid.  

In terms of the other stuff -- the indicators and punctuation in odd spots is being worked on -- the series entry I'll need to look into to see how it might work.
