        When does it stop?  What will be the next character you
        "just have to have"?  At the moment you have 1 inter label
        seperator and 1 intra label seperator.  That should be
        enough for anyone.

        Additionally underscore is used in names in the DNS to
        keep those names out of the hostname namespace.
