They could be replaced by underscores... Otherwise parsing these strings
is much more complex.

Also a general use of these labels is matching to RRD data sources, and
those can't have spaces either, so most tools out there already replace
them with underscores...

While we're at it, I'd like to include a label option in the new
thresholds format (RFC) so i could be overridden... I have a couple of
other changes in mind so I'll start a discussion to see if everyone is
happy with them...
