I can confirm that the error text is now more descriptive:
ERROR: Keypair data is invalid: Keypair name contains unsafe characters

** Changed in: nova
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Released

Title:
  Keypair update returns unclear error with invalid name

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Nova returns 400 error "Keypair data is invalid" if the key name
  contains anything outside of basic ASCII alphanumeric, "-" or "_".

  -I don't see a reason for this. Our external key management system
  handles full unicode key names fine.-

  Edit:
  Updated bug status. I suggest defining a specific error "Keypair name contains invalid characters" (still 400) for more clarity.
