Do file system names and mount points with whitespaces violate the specification of fstab? If so, the least thing I'd suggest is the document this restriction.
Or should one extend 'getfsent' such that is able to cope with those whitespaces? I am not sure whether this would have any further implications so I am asking here.
Formal standards tend to avoid "system administration" issues such as this. I doubt you would be violating any published standard.
I say go for it. If something else breaks because of this change, let's fix that, too. I like the fact that FreeBSD works pretty well with other systems; lets keep pushing that.
