When using gschem interactively, it does not automatically quotes 
attributes with
spaces in them (at least refdes). If quotes are required, it's a serious 
flaw to ask the
user to fix this with an editor or ask to enter the quotes in the name - 
if one does so,
they appear in the renderd text in gschem - so they are no meta-characters.

The only problem I see is, that footprints may need a different 
treatment for m4
macro arguments, which can be confusing.

I second Kai-Martin, that a positive definition is required - acctually 
I started
to write such a page some time ago and posted it here.
