Comment 2 for bug 1623955

Kathy, thanks for your work on this. Two quick comments:

1) The backslash before the '.' was there to escape the '.'. We don't need it anymore, and it should probably be removed to prevent confusion.
2) We had a similar fix on our local system, but had replaced '.' with space instead of leaving them be. It could be that our fix was out of date, but it could also be that there is some case where that helps. I am guessing our fix was just out of date, but thought it was worth mentioning in case it rings a bell with anyone else.
