not if you've translated "." properly to UTF-8 (the regexp that matches
UTF8 byte sequences, from a cursory look your dot should be translated
to the regexp at the bottom of this page:
http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-forms-utf-8).

arguably it's getting so hairy it's probably better to do it properly.

should be solvable with more hairyness.
