Description
Steps to reproduce:
- Type in the controller profile name box and use a name that has an asterisk anywhere in it (beginning, end, middle, etc)
- Save the profile
- The controller profile appears to have been saved and appears in the list of profiles
- Click Delete to try to delete the profile
- Dolphin reports that no such profile exists, even though it appeared to save it It seems the profile never gets saved. If you save the asterisk-named profile, and then close and reopen the mapping window, it is absent from the profile list.
If this is a technical limitation Dolphin should not allow the user to save a profile with asterisks in the name in the first place.

Yeah this shouldn't be allowed, as asterisks are treated as a special character on all OSes.
