I just stumbled upon an unexpected quirk where apparently hyphens are not allowed in template block names:

<html lang="en">
  <head>
    {% block a-head %}{% endblock %}
  </head>
</html>

results in a vague error like

error: problems parsing template source at row 7, column 15 near:
       "head %}\n..."
  --> website/src/routes.rs:12:10
   |
12 | #[derive(Template)]

while {% block head %} works as expected. I would like to document the naming restrictions if someone knows them or could point me to source code that parses such expressions.
