When creating a context (in this case by taxonomy term name), I'd like to have the same functionality as with Views 2, which allows one to convert hyphens to spaces. Thus you can have http://example.com/mypanel/blue-sky rather than "http://example.com/mypanel/blue sky" or "http://example.com/mypanel/blue+sky".

However, I do not see an option for this. Am I being blind? Or would this be a feature request?

This would probably need a custom argument handler or something similar.

well, this is becoming a bit of a blocker for my particular use case, so i'm going to dig into this now.

Ok, here's what I want for this to go in:

Taxonomy term name should be split out from Taxonomy term ID argument. However, it needs to be done in such a way that older configurations will still work; so the original argument should still be able to accept a term ID. Possibly the easiest way to do that is to introduce tid.inc and term_name.inc and deprecate term.inc entirely but leave it so that it can still be used. It'd be even better if we introduce a way to remove it from the UI but still have it in the background That can come later.

Then, taxonomy term name can have an option to translate dashes to spaces.

And the new user name argument should have the same support.
