Odd. Those are fine too, and quite common (the spearfish dataset contains
several raster maps with periods).

Glynn,

  It could have been vector maps instead of rasters.

Vector maps are limited to alphanumerics and underscores due to SQL.
That's something we could change easily enough, though. There's no
fundamental reason why the attribute table must have exactly the same name
as the map.

  No, there isn't. But it makes it easier to read. I'd stay with the SQL
standard for file names.
