Currently easy-menu-intern keeps spaces in strings:

  (defsubst easy-menu-intern (s)
    (if (stringp s) (intern s) s))

Replacing it with:

  (defsubst easy-menu-intern (s)
    (if (stringp s) (intern (string-replace " " "-" (downcase s))) s))

produces from the menu item "Back in History" a more reasonable
symbol 'back-in-history' for which

  (key-valid-p "<tool-bar> C-<back-in-history>")

returns t and can be used in defvar-keymap.

OTOH, [tool-bar C-Back\ in\ history] worked in 27.2 but broke in 28.2
with "<tool-bar> C-<Back in History> is undefined".

After the change above, [tool-bar C-back-in-history] works again.
