Roger that. How about:
Names must be compatible with their use in OWS service requests and
response documents. In particular, they must not contain spaces. For
general use, it is best if they use only the following characters: upper
and lowercase letters, numbers, dash, underscore and period.
(I realized that semicolons probably cause issues in some situations - for
instance, when workspaces are used)
