RESTConfig allows configuration that would be blocked by UI
Description
if I upload a file via restconfig, I can give the resulting layer a name with a period in it. If I tried to do this in the web ui, then I wouldn't be able to (and similarly, trying to edit the layer after adding it via rest results in a validation error, even if I don't actually change any values.)
