Are dashes(-) or any other special characters allowed in task names in task queues?

A:
Yes, you can use dashes. You can also have letters (any case) or numbers. The name must be between 1 and 500 characters.
This is all from looking at the source code, which specifies that task names must match this regular expression:
MAX_TASK_NAME_LENGTH = 500
r'^[a-zA-Z0-9-]{1,%s}$' % MAX_TASK_NAME_LENGTH
