Philipp Bracher commented on MAGNOLIA-2003:
-------------------------------------------

We should solve it by allowing dots for users only (extract the naming method 
and override it in the user tree). Deprecating the selectors won't be enough 
because we would have to wait until they were really not supported anymore.

Doing that should be rather trivial. We could also think about decoupling the 
user node name from the user name and introducing a user name property instead.

> Sidenote: This issue is a blocker for a customer and needs to be solved to be 
> able to manage their users with Magnolia.
> In some large scale projects usernames often have dots, e.g. john.smith. 
> However, if such a name is added, the dots will be replaced by dashes.
> Please extend Magnolia to allow dots in usernames.
> The work around is to override 
> info.magnolia.module.admininterface.AdminTreeMVCHandler.renameNode(String)), 
> but this also means that the customer has to expect update problems.
