Is there a good place to point to for this that has lots
of examples?

Or...

Should we include an example of our string2key function
that shows a whole bunch of the really nasty things you
might hit?

Or...

Maybe change the spec to only allow a smaller subset of
strings to become keys (raising the wrath of the I18N
folks no doubt).

We do need something - this is an area where interop
will (already has I believe) break down.

Stephen.
