Hi.. 

Yeah agree. better go with current approach and it's not mandotory to use 
underscore because as you told URL encoding will do the rest

** [tickets:#7708] Reference wiki pages that contain spaces using underscores**

It would be nice to avoid the ugliness of %20 sequences in wiki URLs for each 
space.  One solution would be to allow the url to contain an underscore for 
each space character and still be able to find the page.

As for potential ambiguity in page names, either the wiki would need to treat 
the names as identical (so that ambiguous pages could not be created) or it 
would have to prefer finding a page with more underscore matches.  I personally 
think that the former is preferable, which would mean that if I try to create a 
page named both "foo_bar" and "foo bar" that I'm told that the page exists.  
The alterntive is for a request for "foo_bar_baz" to find "foo_bar baz" in 
preference to "foo bar baz" if "foo_bar_baz" doesn't exist and the other 2 do 
(due to it having more matching underscores).
