+Notice that nooone has ever complained about encountering this problem.
+Not many users are affected. So, a change that prevents the problem
+occuring going forward, without fixing old repositories, is not going to
+bother many users.
+
+* Make `preSanitizeKeyName` escape out spaces, so new WORM keys
+ won't have spaces.
+* Let WORM keys with spaces be able to be migrated to not have spaces,
+ using `git annex migrate`
+* Make the Remotes.External refuse to have anything to do with keys
+ with spaces, and suggest that the user migrate them.
