Public Channel browser hides channels if one starts with [0] or /

Was scratching my head for a long time why all of a sudden the Public Channel browser is not showing anything anymore, even though there are tons of Public Channels. In the end I found that one channel was missing the first part of its path and started with “[0]” (the annotation for a spread in channels).

Once you publish the channel with the wrong path:

I think it should either show an error or maybe even just show the channel in red or strikethrough in the Channel browser. Seems like a path starting with “/” also causes the same bug.

Tested in 7.1 and latest 7.2 preview. Thanks for looking into.
