IMan is unable to handle connection strings which contain the character '<' in password field.

In IMan 4.2 PU5, it writes the following error to Errors.txt:

2023-02-03 11:59:23:873 - System.Web.HttpRequestValidationException: A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (ctl00$MainContentPlaceHolder$DynamicID$FrmEdCell$ConnectionStrTB="...rd=[PASSWORD WITH < CHARACTER];Option=3").

In IMan 5.1 PU2 a very similar error is logged:
