Can not write geodatabase if the path contains special characters?

I encountered an error when writing data to a geodatabase because the file path contains a dot (period), even though this naming convention is completely valid. Everything worked fine in previous versions, but it fails in FME 2026.1. For example, I want to write to a Geodatabase named 'Geo.A1.2552.gdb'.
Is this a known bug?
