Custom Props Set

Here, Here... I agree. Spaces are just an invitation to problems.
I know that a few CPU cycles are saved with case sensitive filenames,
but..... There's another disaster waiting in the wings.

Just my 2¢ I do not see why anyone NEEDS to put spaces in names of anything.
I always advise no spaces or special characters beyond hyphen and underscore
in file names, and all lowercase in anything accessible over
internet/intranet, including SQL columns. Follow these simple rules and it
will be a rare moment when you have problems.
