You think like I do. 8-)

But I do recognize the problem; it is easy to get around in 4.0,
either as a fixed entry in Catalog.cfg:

Filter   c_nickname  no_white

or in a page:

	[input-filter name=c_nickname op=no_white]
	[/input-filter]

or even:

	[input-filter name=c_nickname]
		my $key = $mv_filter_value;
		# remove all but word and hyphen characters
		$key =~ s/[^-\w]+//g;
		return $key;
	[/input-filter]
