In the DNS system, the only legal non-alpha character is the underscore. While most systems are lenient about this, the Apple iPhone App Store portal is in fact not lenient, and will reject bundle identifiers that are not legal reverse-domain syntax.

Wait, a hyphen is not valid in a domain name? My company has been using write-brain.com for years.

Yes, I think Chris just got it backwards: underscores are not legal in the DNS, but might result from $(PRODUCT_NAME:identifier). Or maybe he meant "calling this function 'identifier' is technically wrong, since most programming languages, including Objective-C, forbid hyphen in identifiers."
