Document valid plugin ID format

Created on 8 September 2015, almost 9 years ago

Problem/Motivation

There is no documentation or specification about the valid character set or maximum length for a plugin ID.

The api.d.o topic just speaks of "a unique string identifier". (Which doesn't even explain in which domain it has to be unique.)

Proposed resolution

[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+
(alphanumeric, underscore, hyphen)

Remaining tasks

Document it!

API changes

Depends on if it is enforced or only documented
