We think the reason hangup request does not work is because it's an alias.
We are using the default cli_aliases.conf which supports hangup request calling
channel request hangup.
We think the alias detects the arguments correctly, but then passes the
argument without the escaped character (or double quotes) to the real CLI
command.
We found that double quotes also work for channel request hangup "..."
It would be nice if the CLI alias commands would pass arguments (or at least
some arguments) with double quotes.
That would allow the hangup request alias to work exactly as the channel
request hangup that it calls.

Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] From the CLI, how can I hangup a channel name
that includes a space character?
Thanks Doug.
Turns out if using hangup request does not work with the escaped character
CLI> hangup request PJSIP/1003\ a-00000007
Usage: channel request hangup <channel>|<all>
Request that a channel be hung up. The hangup takes effect
the next time the driver reads or writes from the channel.
If 'all' is specified instead of a channel name, all channels
will see the hangup request.
However, channel request hangup ... does support the escaped character.
CLI> channel request hangup PJSIP/1003\ a-00000007
Requested Hangup on channel 'PJSIP/1003 a-00000007'
Thank you for the help.
Dan

I think you can typically use tab completion when working with spaces or you
can escape the space with a back slash
For example Doug Lytle would be
