Actually, I shouldn't have worded this as a json issue. It's really a
core problem that keywords with spaces can't be serialized/
deserialized.
A keyword is basically a String, and the language definition does not
preclude keywords from having spaces.
(keyword "a b c") works, and so does (get m (keyword "a b c")) - on an
appropriately created map
Cheers.
