Looks like the right approach to me. It was an unfortunate oversight
in the TemplateList class to treat template_map as a string list rather
than a quoted string list, so there's really no way to embed a space
in the display name field without using an SGML entity as above. You
could also use " ".
The TemplateList class should really be fixed. Until then, your approach
is a good workaround.
