Thanks, I missed that.

I don't even know what requesting an exception might mean for
an IANA registry to be honest. It sounds like a bunch of work
for someone in any case;-)

If you're ok with leaving it out, I suspect that might be the
easier option all right.

I suppose you could register without the illegal character
and note in the text that current deployments use "_" and
not "-" in the name but I'm not sure that'd be useful.
