 It appears that $table_prefix is validated to only contain letters,
 numbers, and underscores.

 However, the user is not made aware of this requirement until after the
 wp-config file has been created.

 If the user tries to enter a hyphen or other non-acceptable character,
 they should be alerted to this and be able to fix it before wp-config is
 generated.
