    the call to replaceInvalidChars is not required; metric names can only 
contain alphanumeric characters. I don't think any reporter will not support 
these.


> Ganglia and GraphiteReporter report metric names with invalid characters

>    Affects Versions: 1.1.0

>
> Flink's {{GangliaReporter}} and {{GraphiteReporter}} report metrics with 
> names which contain invalid characters. For example, quotes are not filtered 
> out which can be problematic for Ganglia. Moreover, dots are not replaced 
> which causes Graphite to think that an IP address is actually a scoped metric 
> name.
