I would certainly recommend against using spaces in filenames as Linux
(and possibly MacOSX) wont like it.

The only character either Linux or Mac OS X is allergic to is /. Spaces
are perfectly acceptable under both. One need only take care that any paths
fed to the shell are properly escaped. Ideally anybody writing shell scripts
or system() calls would handle special shell characters in their input.
Admittedly this is not always the case, but such cases should be considered
bad coding. (For example, Apple once released an iTunes updater that could
rm the hard drive because they forgot spaces in volume names.) Allen

Yeah I know they can be included but its usually a safe idea not to. When
setting a standard Id be wary of allowing anything that is commonly poorly
interpreted (which I suspect the escaped characters are).
