That's true. To get spaces between non-space \markup items you can write
things like
\markup { "foo" \hspace #10 "bar" }
That trick doesn't work for getting spaces at the end (I think I recall
that some people wanted such a thing for instrument names to be placed to
the left of the staff). I don't know whether the following would work --
\markup {"foo" \hspace #10 "<utf-8 byte codes for an invisible char>"}
-- because I haven't tried it. By an invisible character I mean something
like a non-break space or an extra-thin or extra-wide space; I know that
such things exist in Unicode.
