This is bad under any UNIX file system, this is also bad under the
Macintosh file system.
Huh, what are you talking about? Almost all rc files under Unix start with
a period. So I'd say this is fine under the Unix operating system.

P.S. The only thing I'd call "bad" is the bad design of a filesystem which
denies us the right to use all of the printing characters (e.g. ':') in
filenames without any need for such a restriction.
