better is to keep, as in:

for k, v in pairs(to_features) do
     local stripped = gsub(k,"%-"," ")
     to_features[stripped] = v
     local stripped = gsub(k,"[^a-zA-Z0-9]","")
     to_features[stripped] = v
end
for k, v in pairs(to_features) do
     to_features[lower(k)] = v
end

(btw, i uploaded a beta with some of last weeks fixes)
