 Description   

When using Compass to edit a document that exists in the database...

  • click on any field name to rename it.
  • Put a colon ( : ) in the name.

Result: The colon is immediately removed and the cursor teleports to the end of the string.

Expected Result:  A colon should work just as well as a semicolon or underscore.

(Our application code generates field names with colons, and we cannot use Compass to maintain or edit the database due to this issue).

In Compass 1.20+ this is now possible by switching to JSON mode. See Feb-04-2020 09-57-08.mp4.
