[Users] Active Directory Groups

I was attempting to assign some permissions to Active Directory groups and
ran into an issue where groups with spaces or the # sign in them.  The
engine log contained messages like these

2013-05-22 08:39:35,228 WARN  [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.SearchQuery]
(ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-134) ResourceManager::searchBusinessObjects -
erroneous search text - ADGROUP: name=#Virtual Engineering
2013-05-22 08:39:35,228 WARN  [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.SearchQuery]
(ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-46) ResourceManager::searchBusinessObjects - erroneous
search text - ADUSER: allnames=#Virtual Engineering

The group name is valid.  The example above contains both the space and #,
but trying groups with just a space and others with just a # also fail.  I
was able to successfully add groups that contained characters and -.  Has
anyone else had an issue like this?
