Summary:                    cswinitsmf should refuse to create an FMRI with a
dot in the name
Description: 
08:25 <@automaciej> I just discovered that SMF FMRIs don't work if they
have dots in them.
08:25 <@automaciej> like, you can have cswpostgres_8_4, but can't have
cswpostgres_8.4
08:29 < lewellyn> yup
08:29 < lewellyn> it's documented somewhere, in fact.
08:29 <@automaciej> cswclassutils don't catch that
08:29 < lewellyn> that's why sun's services tend to be whatever23 or
whatever_23
08:30 < Dagobert> I guess it is because SMF is designed to be extended to
multi-host at some point in the future and . is a domain-sep. Same thing as
for auto*

I was thinking about the stage in which the maintainer tests the package
before putting it into testing.  At this stage, it would be very convenient
for cswclassutils to report what the problems is.
