I think the current situation for property names is:

 - the backend FS layer allows any null terminated string as a property
   name

 - the frontend client layer restricts property names to a subset of
   ASCII

I'm still not clear whether Garret wants to relax the client
restrictions, or tighten the server restictions, or do both.
