Can't create cyrillic room name

[umnique]

It is error message:
"is not a valid room name,
use only letters, numbers and dashes"
when try to create room name in Russian (e.g. "Знакомства").

I ran a quick test and, for the channel creation (and name editing), it's just a matter of changing server/methods/createChannel.coffee and server/methods/saveRoomName.coffee regex validation:

However, we mostly end up with an ugly URL, since FlowRouter.path params are automatically encoded

...but we can access the channel by its regular characters, so it might be a not-that-big issue

...as it could be decodeURIComponented back

Anyways, this was just a bit of hacking into our codebase but we would certainly need to test this further and come up with a long-lasting solution 😄
