Francis Liu commented on HBASE-8015:
------------------------------------

w.r.t. dot in table name:
public static final String VALID_USER_TABLE_REGEX =
"(?:[a-zA-Z_0-9][a-zA-Z_0-9.-]*)";
So dot should be allowed
{quote}
Thanks for the clarification. It seems like '.' and '-' isn't allowed only if
it's the first character. For backward compatibility why don't we create
namespaces for those tables that are named that way?
