Field names are interpolated directly into sed regex patterns without escaping. If a field name contains regex metacharacters (., *, ?, [, etc.), the sed command matches incorrectly. For example, a field named 'my.setting' would match 'myXsetting' since '.' matches any character. Escape special characters in field names before using them in sed patterns in both parse-frontmatter.sh and validate-settings.sh.
