Collections with dots in their name (e.g. systems.meta) are valid per the MongoDB spec, yet they are invisible in both the Atlas UI and Compass 1.49.15 sidebar while remaining fully queryable via mongosh. listCollections or the UI layer is incorrectly filtering them out, making it impossible to browse or manage these collections through any graphical interface. This is seriously frustrating — I've wasted time debugging what turned out to be a tooling bug, not a data issue. Please fix this: valid collection names should be visible everywhere.
