(Whiteboard: [nsbeta3+]) 

When I am typing an anchor in the edit field, I am permitted to type spaces but 
then they are automatically converted.  I think we should either not allow spaces 
to be typed or we should change the space to an underscore.  Of course we may 
need to be careful with ime stuff here.
You mean convert a space to "_" as they are typing? Why don't you like the 
conversion after you finish?

Yes, I mean as a person types.  I don't like the conversion after I'm done 
because it is hidden from the user (they don't know what character the space was 
converted to).

I guess we can do something like we do in "ForceInteger()" to replace as they
type.

Simple fix -- replace "bad" characters such as spaces to "_" as user types and
remove the "(Spaces are not allowed)" string in the dialog.
