The bug:
reLyX does not translate "\ " and "~" (protected spaces) inside tabulars 
correctly.

reLyX has subsequently been modified to translate '~' to 
protected_separator.

My LaTeX knowledge is insufficient to say that there is no LaTeX difference 
at all between '~' and '\ '. Can someone knowledgable advise? If there is 
no difference, then I guess it's reasonable to translate '\ ' to 
protected_separator also.

I have done a test with this latex file:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
\hline
a~a~a~a& b~b~b~b
\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{document}

If I replace all the '~' above with  '\ ', the two dvi files are identical.

Nonetheless, I'd like confirmation that this is the right thing to do.
