Description

I cleaned up one tiny piece as part of #2713 so that users can preview the cleaned table name, the same should be done for column names as well as perhaps using quoted names to allow for more naming flexibility.

Right now column names aren't being cleaned or quoted, so need to be manually corrected before export for things to work. Any non-ASCII names will likely cause errors as will various other illegal names.
