Something like this (found in Exporter::Export())
} else if (contains(buffer->filePath(), ' ')) {
Alert::error(_("File name error"),
_("The directory path to the document cannot contain spaces."));
return false;
?
The new teTeX 3.0 has a way (or two) to handle spaces. Something like
\include{"My Files"}
So probably we should drop all safety checks concerning this and just
include the quotes whenever LyX creates such a TeX command.
