 Is there a good reason that /wp-admin/network/site-new.php uses it's own
 hard-coded blogname validation rules? Shouldn't it just call
 wpmu_validate_blog_signup() for DRY as well as a consistent / universal
 application of filters across all new site names? It seems crazy to have
 two different sets of validation for the same thing. And as multisite
 plugin developers we see network admins confused by the different behavior
 of site-new.php and sites created through plugins which use
 wpmu_validate_blog_signup().
