Proposal to prevent the use of `.` when creating Namespaces
Proposal
Customer who use a .
in their Namespace and want to make use of Terraform will experience issue doing so. This has also been documented in the GitLab Terraform documentation.
Once the customer encounters this they will not have a workaround to correct other that renaming the Namespace which has it's own set of consequences.
Therefore we propose to prevent customers from making use of the .
before it causes issues after considerable effort has already been put into the setup of their Environment. A MR has been raised to update the documentation to reduce this impact. However it would be better to prevent this from occurring in the first place.
