Yes, the finder does that. The finder also doesn't let you put a
return/new line/NULL in a file name. That doesn't mean there isn't
other ways to do this (and watch how the finder totally mishandles a
return in a file name on OS X).
for instance, touch ~/.Trash

Somebody could have, for example, foolishly made a file called

files on the same volume as the user's home directory.
I just tried it and the Finder said "this name is reserved by the
system and cannot be used".
