I suspect then that the broken status quo is better than fixing
anything: good user experience should allow users to enter spaces and
see spaces at all times through the system! It actually works as is so
clearly the DVB elements are happy with spaces – they have to be as
that is what comes down the line. Having to convert from space to %20
and back again all the time seems like a silliness. Of course the
standards people will say "but you must do it to be standards
compliant".

I shall rant elsewhere :-)
