We had a long discussion during the PRECIS meeting in Paris about
spaces. I need to listen to the audio recording again before I post
further here about the reasoning, but it seems to me that the PRECIS
folks (c'est moi, among others) might want to define something like a
"compound name" that is made up of names and spaces. I'll review the
audio and pursue this matter on the PRECIS list before coming back to
the KITTEN list for further discussion.
