form input tag's name attribute should handle all of CDATA #13

Description

@jbothma

A form input tag's name attribute should be able to contain any CDATA characters. At least according to http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd

Currently quite a limited (albeit the vastly most common) set of characters are supported by https://github.com/nitrogen/simple_bridge/blob/master/src/simple_bridge_request_wrapper.erl#L97 but it breaks when you want to parse an array of things like Chicago Boss model IDs like the following because of the hyphen

<input type... name="items[word-3]" />
<input type... name="items[word-5]" />

Of course there are many workarounds and I'm not even providing a patch, but I thought I'd log the issue until I can provide a patch ans see if there's any interest in such a fix anyway.
