Could you add QA checks also for uppercase in machine and distro names?
When giving an on-site training last winter (using Morty), I helped the
customer solve quite a few issues stemming from the fact that they had a
machine name with uppercase letters in.
I know that the bug in question specifically talks about recipe name,
though adding checks for them all would be even better, IMHO.
Cheers,
Anders
