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.
