Pravan,

I wasn't able to find the answer to your question in a public places,
so I'm coying this from the original SMF design notes that were submitted
for PSARC case 2002/547.  The PSARC postings for OpenSolaris don't go back
that far.

  3.2.2.1   Property names

  Property names (as well as property group names and instance names) are
  restricted to match the regular expression

                   ([A-Za-z][ A-Za-z0-9.-]*,)?[A-Za-z][ A-Za-z0-9-]*

  with the . character in the first phrase being literal. This restriction
  makes the standard punctuation characters beyond the hyphen, underscore,
  and comma reserved, such that their use can be aligned with those
  conventions applying to URIs.
