Quite true: I wasn't trying to put you off testing :-)

Indeed, and likely to be true for most people likely to test anything.
We've not proposed any change to the status quo: I was just trying to

If there is interest I'll suggest an appropriate piece of Lua for MiKTeX
to convert spaces in files into "*" chars inside \jobname.
