Samuel,

I definitely think that this is an omission in the doc. The doc for 
`org-todo-keywords' ascribes meaning to at (@), slash (/), bang (!), 
and at least close paren ()).

I would think that the quick keywords should be limited to word 
characters as defined by [[info:elisp#Char%20Classes][info:elisp#Char 
Classes]].

I bet if you provide suggested rewording for variable and info that 
someone on this will push it into the doc.
