I hope we are talking about the field TITLE and not the filename.  
The slash is a valid character ... yet, some programs interpret the slash as a separator.  
But in this thread you find a solution that uses a character that looks like the slash but isn't one:

So my advice would be to eliminate all slashs completely and replace them with similar looking character but one with a completely different one like ⁄ (U+2044). Does not help a lot with the basic problem but should dampen any enthusiasm.
