No. And I don't wish to, too. 
Due to the gnetlists infamous misinterpretation of hyphens as m4 code I 
already restricted my library to upper case letters, numbers and 
underscore. Footprint names would be a lot less human readable if 
underscores were also excluded.

IMHO the netter way to deal with the sirtuation would be a more robust 
parsing of names, rather than spam stdout with warnings.
