Careful with protein identifiers in CARNIVAL about carnival HOT 2 CLOSED

This particular issue likely came from the using of prior knowledge network with gene symbols as the identifiers. Two methods to address would be automatically check the node's names for special/mathematics symbols then either 1) return an error to the user to remove them from PKN manually or 2) automatically convert special characters directly upon importing PKN to CARNIVAL. Note that other symbols and configuration e.g. '/' or space would also raise a similar issue for writing the constraints.

Note that we will compile a list of issues and suggestions from the users and developers then open up the Wiki-section of the repository to address these point soon.
