Skip Montanaro added the comment:

What little I could find about Windows INI file syntax didn't identify the 
valid character set of the keys. Like other Windows-based file formats, INI 
seems to only be operationally defined. It wouldn't surprise me if you needed 
to restrict yourself to the usual identifier syntax. In regular expression 
terms:

    [_A-Za-z][a-zA-Z_0-9]*
