I think we either have to do this, or introduce a formal convention for these strings that say either to always add a space to the front or the back of them. I guess we don't really see this much as a problem in practice, because we don't have many of these "non-mode" strings in the mode line. So perhaps settling on a convention and then altering all the instances to follow it would be more efficient -- there's probably just a few dozen of them? -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
