Comment:

 Using `AppConfig.label` other than valid Python identifier has never been
 officially supported. Removing this exception would also force changing
 this long-standing decision and we'd have to add tests for such apps.

 > So, what do you think about changing the exception to something that can
 be overridden, like a warning or system check?

 I don't think that's an option.

 Please start a discussion on the DevelopersMailingList and
 [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/triaging-
 tickets/#closing-tickets follow the triaging guidelines with regards to
 wontfix tickets], if you don't agree.
