Change our handling of namepaths with special characters

Right now, if part of a namepath contains the characters ., ~, or #, you have to wrap that part of the namepath in quotes. It would make sense to escape the special character and strip the quotes.
As part of this change, we should make sure that existing templates can handle this change without modification. If they can't, we'll need to reach out to template authors.
This change was proposed in the discussion that ensued from #872.

I don't think we can do this until the next major version.
