Will Berkeley commented on KUDU-981:
------------------------------------

From, e.g., [Creating a New Kudu Table from 
Impala|http://getkudu.io/docs/kudu_impala_integration.html#kudu_impala_create_table],
 the name of the backing Kudu table should be able to be different from the 
Impala table name, so maybe it's ok to be a lot more permissive with Kudu table 
names. Is it required that any Kudu table be able to have an Impala table 
established over it? If so, I should research what, if any, restrictions there 
are on the RHS of the table property {{'kudu.table_name' = ...}}.

> Validate table and column names

> Currently I believe we allow table names such as "", " ", etc. We should 
> probably figure out a reasonable subset of characters and validate names.
