Looks like there are no any restrictions, you can use whatever characters you like for keys. No special cases, dot is just like any other character. I think my thoughts were like this: “in all examples of .properties files I’ve ever seen the keys were alphanumeric; so if we encounter something strange (@#$ = foo) we’d better use zero relevance”. And then I made this special case and somehow managed to use different class name for it. It’s a 100% bug. I’ve just checked: it’s OK to flatten he grammar to just keys (making no distinction for character classes).
