My personal recommendation for avoiding spaces is for practical
reasons: commands such as \input, \include, \includegraphics,
\includepdf, \graphicspath, don't seem to treat space as just another
character in the file name. Yes, spaces can be included, but must
receive special treatment (escape them, or quote the string).
