            - By default this plugin is using a general group name sanitization to create safe and usable group names for use in Ansible.
              This option allows you to override that, in efforts to allow migration from the old inventory script and
              matches the sanitization of groups when the script's ``replace_dash_in_groups`` option is set to ``False``.
              To replicate behavior of ``replace_dash_in_groups = True`` with constructed groups,
              you will need to replace hyphens with underscores via the regex_replace filter for those entries.
            - For this to work you should also turn off the TRANSFORM_INVALID_GROUP_CHARS setting,
              otherwise the core engine will just use the standard sanitization on top.
            - This is not the default as such names break certain functionality as not all characters are valid Python identifiers
              which group names end up being used as.
