+### Disallow dots (.) in iterator names
+
+In [ACCUMULO-3389], we added a check to prevent iterators from being created by
+our API which contained the dot (.) character. In some cases, the presence of a
+dot character could be parsed incorrectly as an iterator option rather than
+part of its name. This caused unexpected problems. Iterator names are no longer
+allowed to contain dots. Any user code doing that will break with an
+IllegalArgumentException.
