In that case, maybe it would be possible to go the whole way and 
sanitize distro / target / subtarget / board_name identifiers, so that 
there are no troublesome characters (the usual suspects, including "/")?

There are only a few such identifiers containing troublesome characters, 
which makes them into easy traps for the unaware.

It is annoying to have hacks around replacing them with "_" because of 
other stuff that doesn't take kindly to such chars in identifiers. 
board_name in particular is often used/visible externally, for example, 
it is very visible to ACS servers, etc.
