Establishing a new level of control here is a bit of a reach when we are
trying to close a validation gap?

How about I take migration out of the proposal, and we warn users when they
are publishing with an invalid name (and the warning can provide the name
that will actually be seen).

So for a FeatureType 13A the warning will say "13A is not valid, will be
published as the "_13A".

I don't think we want to reach in and disable layers on a protocol by
protocol basis.
