My idea was that 'osc co home:a_jaeger:something' would create home_a_jaeger_something. If there would be a user "a" with project home:a:jaeger:something and you would want to checkout his project, then you would have to chose a different directory name. Would that work?
I did a little investigation about using special chars in OBS projects. Mine observation:
':' - 6940 times (obviously) '_' - 3361 (probably not a good candidate either) '-' - 349 '.' - 107
'.' seems like a good choice! It is a common symbol for namespacing, it is compatible with http/shell/dns/etc and it is familiar to many people using Java/.NET namespacing. Plus, it looks like half of a colon: we are saving pixels ;) Of course we need to figure out how many people have dots in their usernames but that could be worked around somehow.
