Bug Description

Special characters are not handled in usernames. for instance 'origami install -u foo&bar -t 123168' used during install will spawn a background process and lose the team id.

origami version: 0.6.8.1-0ubuntu5
distro: hardy
error: none from origami, but in the case above, the shell will error if 'bar' is not a command

Changed in origami:
assignee: nobody → Christer Edwards (christer.edwards)
importance: Undecided → Low
status: New → Confirmed

It should be verified that surrounding the username in single-quotes (') will bypass this issue.
