@revans2 Thanks for clarifying. I have a better understanding of what
you're saying now.
How do you feel about just replacing "." with "_" on all metrics path
components (host name, componentId, etc.)? That would ensure a path could be
reliably split on the "." character.
I'll add stream id and executor id to the path in places where they are
available.---
