Public bug reported:

When an uploaded file is renamed to a filename consisting of spaces
only, this is accepted but misbehaves.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Log in as administrator.
2) Go to Administration -> Configure site -> Site files.
3) Upload a file.
4) Click on the pencil icon to the right of the file.
5) Change the name field to a single space and click "Save changes". Observe 
that the save succeeds.
6) Click on the pencil icon to the right of the file. Observe that the name 
field is blank (no spaces).
7) Click on "Save changes". Observe that the save fails with the error "The 
name field is required".

Expected behaviour:
a) the save fails in step 5 with the error message "The name field is 
required"; or, failing that,
b) the spaces are preserved for step 6 and the save succeeds in step 7.
