I have a dash in my github username, 'k-scheer', but when I try to verify my ID via the browser, the keybase.md generated claims it to be 'kscheer'. I've tried changing it to match, failure. I just C/Ped raw, failure.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the browser-generated keybase.md for the GitHub username k-scheer and compare it with the verification requirements. Trace where the username is converted to the proof text; done means the generated proof preserves the dash and can be verified successfully.
