      HELP-73786 showed that a write with a write concern containing a null byte can cause serverStatus to fail, which is a large blast radius for an errant write command. SERVER-103742 prevents that specific failure, but idl itself should have a validation to make it easier to prevent this across a wider class of potential issues.
