This is still ignoring the point: arbitrarily changing the module's
longstanding standard behavior isn't acceptable.  You need to provide
a way for the user to control the behavior.  (Once you've done that,
I think it can be just either "alnum" or "!isspace", but maybe some
other behaviors would be interesting.)
