URIs cannot contain whitespace; whitespace in native path names must be
encoded as %20. Please write ::
Use myLink_ here
.. _myLink: //server/subdir%20with%20spaces/index.html
In case the slashes do not work and you absolutely have to use
backslashes, please keep in mind to escape them
("\\\\server\\subdir%20with...").
(David: How do we catch such errors in the future? Create a Warning
when non-newline-whitespace is stripped? And what about backslashes and
the like? Issue a Warning when URIs contain invalid characters?)
