If you attempt to publish a Web Project containing periods in the name (eg the Eclipse project is named "sample.servlet"), we have discovered an issue where the application deployment wizard's unique hostname generation algorithm will keep trying (and failing) to find a valid unique subdomain name and thus never complete (fortunately it is fully cancellable and does not block the workbench UI thread.)

However, generally speaking, periods in the application deployment name should be supported by the wizard. With this new behaviour, periods will be stripped out of the app name when used to set the subdomain (sample.servlet -> sampleservlet), which is how the CF CLI handles this scenario.
