I suspect you haven't tried alpha 4. Commas in names are left alone. Periods are left alone unless they are at the beginning or the end of the segment. For example, a book with
Code:
title=Unknown. Mankind is doomed
Author=Weber, David
when used with the CC template "{authors}/{title} - {authors}" produces the path
Code:
Weber, David/Unknown. Mankind is doomed - Weber, David.epub
You can see that the periods and the commas are still there.

Regardless, I won't argue with you about it. Thanks for your help, and best wishes for the future.
