AdWords Disallows Trademark Name Keyword Suggestions?

Reports over at WebmasterWorld forums that Adwords Keyword Tool Trademark Blackout. Cline from Aderit Internet Marketing reports that if you use the Google AdWords Keyword Suggestion tool, and plugin a trademarked name, it won't return suggestions. I personally tried this and I am getting suggestions, so maybe this is a limited user test?

I am not sure. But I know Cline knows his stuff and I doubt this is a mistake on his side.
