Underscore in folder name

I just noticed that if I create a folder that contains anunderscore anywhere in the string, Notes will not display

it. This happens with the Notes client and programmatically

with the Notes C API. If I try to rename the folder, the underscore appears in the rename dialog box, but Notes just will not display it.

What’s going on?

The underscore is assumed to be a marker for hotkey access, so if you name a folder “Dele_gated”, the “G” key becomes a shortcut to open the folder. The underscore will not be displayed since it is not so much a part of the user-facing name as a modifier for the character that follows.
