To be precise, the chain of reasoning is...

1. The value of the XHTML 1.1 'class' attribute must match the NMTOKENS
production:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstract_modules.html#s_core_collection

2. The NMTOKENS production is defined as a space-separated list of
NMTOKEN productions:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstraction.html#dt_NMTOKENS

3. The NMTOKEN production references the XML 1.0 spec:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-modularization/abstraction.html#dt_NMTOKEN

4. The NMTOKEN production is defined as one or more NameChars:

http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xml-2e-20000814#NT-Nmtoken

5. A NameChar is defined as follows:

Letter | Digit | '.' | '-' | '_' | ':' | CombiningChar | Extender

http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xml-2e-20000814#NT-NameChar

I have not yet researched this matter with regard to XHTML 1.0 or HTML 4.0.
