As mentioned earlier today on the TwitchDev Standard Output broadcast, we are moving this suggestion to "planned." We appreciate everyone's patience with this one. Although it sounds simple and we see the value, there were a number of underlying complexities to consider before we had confidence in a path forward and providing a response. We will provide another update when the endpoint is available for testing.

Though we no longer create or support official category tags that aren't user-defined, we understand the issues that misspellings and related terms can cause. We are investigating a solution for this and other music genres that we hope to build out within the next year. We'll provide an update once we have more information. Thank you.

My bits button is still REPLACED by the coin button on some channels. I even tried to get around it by typing Cheer100 but it pops open the coin cheer interface with a red error message saying that's the only way I can support this creator during the experiment.
There was a hype train going and I decided to cheer using the coin system to see how it works. To become the bits hype train conductor it says to cheer bits, but I figured the coin button would work since twitch took away my bits on this channel. Coin cheers *DO NOT* count towards hype train bits conductor.
Also twitch charged me $1.30CAD, but the message in chat said I cheered $1.00CAD, so I'm really not sure if that's supposed to be including payment processing fees or twitch fees? 30¢ CAD (23%) of my cheer was removed between when I paid and when the message was shown in chat, but that doesn't align with twitch's 70/30 split, and I don't think it aligns with the payment processor's fees.
After actually using it once I just feel far more confused than I ever did with bits. Who knows how much the channel I tipped will actually get in the end?

As a viewer I've had my ability to cheer changed to the new experiment on a few channels, and I really don't like it.
I'm limited to "cheering" $1.30, $6.50, $13.00, $65.00, $130.00 Canadian Dollars.
With bits a lot of channels I watch have special alerts for specific bit amounts, and this completely removes my ability to use those.
I can't preload my twitch account with this new system, if I wanted to tip more than $1.30 but less than $6.50 I'd have to tip $1.30 multiple times, and I feel like a lot of my money would go to processing fees that way.
To me this feels like a much much worse viewer experience, and if I want to support the channels I've been switched over on, I'll be doing it via 3rd party donations (kofi, streamelements donation, paypal, etc), rather than via twitch.

Generally properly written code should be able to handle any string, with the scariest cases being single quote (( ' )) if someone was using SQL to store data without either using the proper sanitization to escape input data, or using prepared statements.
Beyond that care would have to be taken to escape any special characters where usernames are transported (I'm not sure what the restrictions the IRC protocol enforces), and formats where someone might be writing usernames to disk with the intention to load back later.
Basically in code you can always use escape sequences to represent characters in a string that would otherwise be unsafe though, so that should not be an issue.
