SNMP Error due to ! in Community String

[MPSTech]

We get an error when adding hosts using SNMP because our community string has a ! in it. This is fixed after by adding a \ in front of the ! but would require us to fix it on every single service for every host. We are under the impression this is a bug and are wondering if there is a plan to address it. We are not wanting to change the string.
