Hello,

A reference to a table name such as '2019-Q1-X' is rewritten to '2019-@1$17-X'
by org-edit-special.  And also for '2019_Q1_X'.     v9.2.3

Test case:

      |---+----+--------|
      | # | Q1 | 600.00 |
      |---+----+--------|
      #+TBLFM: @1$3=remote(2019-*Q1*-X,$total)

      #+NAME: 2019-Q1-X
      |----+--------|
      | _  |  total |
      | *  | 600.00 |
      |----+--------|

With cursor in 1st table, invoke org-edit-special with:  C-x '

Then save the edit with C-c C-c and notice TBLFM is now:

      #+TBLFM: @1$3=remote(2019-*@1$17*-X,$total)

A workaround is to use 1Q instead of Q1 in table name.

Try setting `org-table-use-standard-references' to nil.

I think this should be the default.

Confirmed, that fixes it for me and since I don't use the 'B3' style in org
tables it doesn't interfere with anything for me.

thanks Nicolas!
