Special Characters in Away Message Crash Spark

I think this is a bug:

If you try to use special characters in your away message (for example & or _) it will kick you offline.

Thanks!

Turn that 6 upside-down it looks like the issue is SPARK-279

Similar bug I believe: If you use & in a group name, it will crash as soon as you add a new member.
