I agree with this.
Getting spaces into the tag isn't the problem, well it is, but learning
the query syntax is a pain.

Additionally, we have a question of what to do with spaces. Should tags
be multi-word or not? My suggestion to Phay (one of our developers) was
to use spaces as separators in the input field, therefore not supporting
spaces. But we could do multiple things to support spaces, such as
quoting multi-word tags. I believe Flickr supports multi-words but they
remove the spaces from the tags, but technorati does maintain spaces. I
don't like them myself, because I think it fragments the tag space much
more than single words and you could still use intersections to get the
sort of the same result.
I prefer the del.icio.us style, where spaces are separators and are not
supported in tags. I think this is the easiest for users to understand and
work with.
