Lift restrictions on property names by using a pair of characters around identifiers (only when necessary) about mavo HOT 3 OPEN

My opinion is that overloading some sort of bracket just to allow arbitrary naming is not a good trade-off, especially if you have to change existing expressions. The existing usage was chosen as best option for the feature set implemented, so to go back and change it leaves both features as less than optimal.
Would it work with backslash before the offending character? Or a function that removes characters before using the name in the expression?

Backticks? Or is it too much for HTML/CSS developers? Or is it not very readable?

`Time tracker`.Filter(Activity = thisRow).`Time spent`.sum()

I don't think it's too much, I think a bigger issue is that it's used in JS in a different way, so it makes expressions confusing to read to those who do understand JS. But many options have this problem. I added this as an option to consider.
