Those symbols do work in device names and net names.

There is an issue with param names because of param expressions.  
Those characters can have meanings of their own in expressions.  
For example "foo|bar" .. is likely to mean "foo or bar".

Param expressions are known to have issues.  Fixing it, or even 
documenting it properly, requires further study.  I think any 
problems there will come out as testing and debugging of 
expressions is completed.
