Is it... 'valid' to put colons in my resource names? I know CDK doesn't allow it because those often get passed as identifiers to AWS, and AWS doesn't allow them in IDs, so I was somewhat expecting Pulumi to throw an error even if I wasn't creating AWS resources. But it accepted it fine. I like the pattern it gives (using colons to denote 'child' resources within a
ComponentResource
), but I don't want to start using that if it's going to bite me badly down the line if we start using this for AWS or similar.

you can put anything in resource names currently
aws provider should clean the name before passing it to aws
