IIRC it was alnum + '_', maybe even '-'. For now, I couldn't find a good reason why the set of allowed characters for keywords should be smaller than for the tag name. Feel free to tighten the set of characters before this makes it into a release. However, if you do, the same tightening should be considered for the tag name as well, I guess. Can't see any good reasons for why one should be tighter than the other. > And please accept my apologies for my language.
