I agree. I don't even use spaces, so as to avoid having to encapsulate in
quotes. Just upper and lower case. When a delimiter is absolutely necessary,
I use an underscore character instead of a space because I have found an
underscore is a pretty safe special character in all OSs and DBs I have
used.

I note even MS has dropped the use of spaces in system directory names that
were in XP and prior but not in Vista.
