Whoops, will push a patch to stable shortly.  The grammer wasn't 
recognizing '.' as a legal character.

Well, technically they are.  My worry is that it's more likely that racks 
will have significantly vary capacity (i.e. crush weight) due to, say, 1 
full rack and a second 1/2 rack.  If the policy forces replicas be placed 
across racks things won't balance well.

I suppose there should be an argument like --min-racks that controls that 
threshold?
