In net names, when they are used in spice simulator, there are a few constraints:
- some chars are not accepted, because they are separators in directives, for instance ,{}()
- AKAIK, but I can be wrong, only ASCII7 char set is allowed

Currently, only '(' and ')' are replaced by _, because unfortunately I used these char in default net names, and the spice netlist generator replaced these not allowed chars by _ since a long time.

I am not sure replacing not allowed chars in net names is a good idea.
It can create many issues.
An user who want to use spice simulator should know the spice constraints, and must comply and live with them.
