Bug: RenameTopicAllowsSpaces

It is possible to rename a page to a name with spaces without warning. This topic will break most everything afterwards, since the spaces in the URLs are not treated well by all browsers.

This not only makes the page difficult to access. It also makes it impossible to rename it back within TWiki, since the URLs neccessary to access for the rename action will also be broken.

If you rename the files in the filesystem, the dependencies in other topics are broken.
