Lint for syntax-quoted symbols with a dot

[vemv]

One of these things is not like the other:

`a
`a-a
`a.a ;; <-------
::a
::a-a
::a.a

Its lack of ns-expansion is something I only recently learned about (even after sprinkling dots in ns-qualified things for a number of years).

So it seems a deceiving construct, which can lead to buggy code.

What would you think about linting for them?

Can you please fill out the issue template when posting a next issue?

What do you find deceiving?

Using symbols with dots in syntax-quote is a pretty common phenomenon. I have several dozens of them here: https://github.com/babashka/babashka/blob/26336ed5006ebfbc127da9eaf3d522d07aaf6e15/src/babashka/impl/classes.clj#L99

So I don't think warning about them, without any more information about your issue, which the issue template kind of forces you to provide, is a good idea.
