As someone who has a hyphen in his last name not from marriage, but from birth
it also in infuriating when I come across a computer system that will only
accept alpha characters in the last name field.

As one who uses their middle name, I am always infuriated when, in this
day of TeraByte storage, I encounter computer systems that insist on
calling me "A", because I use "A. Rick Anderson". If you insist on such
an archaic limitation, please do NOT add a restriction against the use
of a period or space character as legal values in a name. I can't tell
you how many computer systems where my "first" name is "A. Rick" Anderson :-(
But, if you'd send me your initial cut, I would also appreciate having a
starting point.
