I had a discussion with Gnomi about the issue of objects with empty names. His opinion is, that there is no conceptual issue preventing this and any problems should be fixed. Its OK for me, but please keep in mind, that there maybe problems. If in doubt, you might want to dis-allow to create /.c in your mudlib and restrict rename_object().

Resolved by r2486.
However, please keep in mind, that there *may* be other issues with empty object names. Use them at your own risk.
