Indeed Pd is missing a way of properly managing all characters that have some special meaning, like whitespace, dollar sign, commas and semicolons, and even characters that have some special meaning _internally_, such as brackets, which cause weird behaviours if used as labels of gui objects (sometimes the weirdnesses only manifest themselves after saving and loading the patch)....
