Creating a document which contains key with dots (.) embedded is allowed with mongoimport

      mongoimport vs mongoshell

      When using mongoimport, creating a document which contains dots in a key is possible. however, this should not be allowed, since it would never be queryable.

      example
      -------
      mongoimport -d test -c invalidjson --file ivalid.json (use attached file)

      This is allowed using mongoimport, but actually the document is invalid. Can you add a check on this when importing data? mongoshell is ok. that returns a correct error.
