Sorry, I think my view is that it was an oversight that special characters
were ever allowed in tag names. It was intentional to tighten this up.
Tags are identifiers. Allowing brackets would confuse the query languages
- certainly AQL and I would imagine also the original query language. I
suggest you rewrite to e.g. Titer_in_PFU_per_ul and just ug_per_ul etc.
