Or can I somehow check for the > warning that is raised? No, there is not a routine that does what you want. In fact, the function ``tables.checkNameValidity()`` is only meant for internal use. I think the routine that you need can be obtained quite easily from the above one. Feel free to open a ticket so that I can track it later on (if you end with an implementation, please attach it to the ticket).
