 Priority:  major           |             Milestone:  4.12.0
Component:  core libraries  |               Version:  4.11.0
 Keywords:                  |  Estimated difficulty:  easy
----------------------------+-------------------------------
 {{{
 $ csi
 #;1> (string->keyword "foo bar") ; Should be escaped
 foo bar:
 #;2> |foo bar|:                  ; Handled correctly by the reader
 foo bar:
 #;3> #:|foo bar|                 ; I don't know *what* is going on here!
 |foo:
 }}}

 And

 {{{
 $ csi -K prefix
 #;1> (string->keyword "foo bar")  ; should be escaped
 :foo bar
 #;2> :|foo bar|                   ; Handled correctly by the reader
 :foo bar
 }}}

 I expect a keyword with a space in it to be serialised like the symbol and
 followed by a colon (or preceded, depending on the keyword style). The
 reader should handle the {{#:}}} prefix no different from the mode-
 specific syntax.
