Comment (by lloydbudd):

 I'm not arguing that the space isn't prevalent, but you also won't find
 people using it with a taste for asthetics.

 this-is-a-sentence is much easier to enter and read than
 this+is+a+sentence

 davidmeade, you are confused if you think that using - used as a word
 delimiter breaks the HTML standard. dash is the standard" for space in
 URLs on the modern web.

 Further, you haven't demonstrated a real cost of WordPress not adopting
 it. Technorati could easily choise to recognize WPs multi-word tags, and
 anyway navigation and searching by tags on Technorati is a niche
 experience.
