Yes, but all the others have the dot in the middle of a word and work fine
(although still violate the rule that you should not put a '.' in node
names). I don't mean to harp on this, but is it too much to change this one
instance so that the documentation actually works?  It seems to me to be
poor software engineering practice to deliberately violate a documented
exclusion (not using '.' in node names) because it happens to work in one
implementation.  But that's all I'll say on the matter. I'll leave the
question of whether you are prepared to ship stuff in a known broken state
to you.
