Comment (by hlashbrooke):

 @dd32 I agree with you there. Spaces ''should'' be formatted correctly
 before being passed to `wp_redirect()`, but like you said - the sane thing
 to do would be to double check that before handling the redirect. I think
 patching this would be a useful improvement, if only to prevent unexpected
 situations when handling redirects.
