This does seem like a "hole" in the core handling.  Also, when you save and 
reload the file,
the upper case letters are automatically re-mapped to lowercase, but the 
spaces result
in TWO fields (e.g., "this field" becomes two fields, "this" and "field").

I ran into this problem myself while working on a project, and here's my 
"fixup" for it:
<$vars fieldName={{{ [<fieldName>split[ ]join[_]lowercase[]] }}}>
What this does is replace spaces with underscore, and change all uppercase 
to lowercase

For example:
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/newfieldname">
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/newfieldvalue">
<$button> make field
   <$vars fieldName={{{ [{$:/temp/newfieldname}split[ ]join[_]lowercase[]] 
}}}>
   <$action-setfield $field=<<fieldName>> $value={{$:/temp/newfieldvalue}}/>
   </$vars>
</$button>

enjoy,
-e
