I wouldn't say this is bug... at least this is expected. Sure, it is possible to rewrite format_corename/argv_split interaction, but this is a bit painful and I am not sure it worth the trouble. > To do what though?

That'd probably make sense, Or, perhaps, we can simply change cn_escape() to do s/space/something/ unconditionally (currently it only does s'/'!'). But this is a user- visible change.
