Rather than using a "stand in", wouldn't it be better to convert
spaces to their HTML proper equivalent of   and leaving it that
way (rather than converting back to spaces)? That should enable whole
lines to be treated as single arguments, and allow whitespace
retention (multiple spaces show up as one space, but multiple  
show up as multiple spaces), but the source code would look
atrocious.... But who views the source to read content?
