I am not quite sure why miktex/bibtex can not handle a path with
spaces, whereas miktex/latex can. Anyway, if this is a problem that

_TeX_ cannot handle spaces. I suppose that you do not really
know the difference of TeX, LaTeX, pdfTeX, pdfLaTeX, bibTeX, MiKTeX

will be classified as WONTFIX, it would be better to warn the user
about this when a .bst file is selected in the bibtex dialog. If a
user is *allowed* to select and use a .bst file, and end up with no
bibliography in the output, his confidence in lyx will suffer.

allowing spaces in file/pathnames was never a good idea
