Original report (BitBucket issue) by Elijah Christensen (Bitbucket: elijahc).

Greetings experimentalist humans, I hail from the lab of Jay Hesselberth.

I tried to run reverse-world with tied tracks and discovered track names can't start with digits. It would be nice if this was checked and failed gracefully with an error message.

PR coming.

Can you report your error here? Is this only in the tied tracks or reverse world case? segway.run.quote_trackname() should appropriately escape anything like that. Not sure throwing an error is the right solution.
