+Summary: XmlSerializer will serialize invalid XML characters but complain at deserialization.
+
+If you have an XmlSerializer set up, and one of the things it is
+serializing is a string which contains an invalid XML character (any
+unicode char below 0x20, except 0xd, 0xa and 0x9), it will serialize it
+without error.  However, on the side that does deserialize it, you get an
+exception:
+
+System.Xml.XmlException: Referenced character was
+not allowed in XML. Normalization is True, checkCharacters = True  Line 9,
+position 69.
+
+I would expect that either it would complain at serialization time, or
+offer a way to replace the invalid characters with valid ones.
