I found when trying to type a name into a database grid cell (in the Name column) the space key wasn't working. I assumed that database item names are not allowed to have spaces. But then I found I could enter a space if I type Shift-Spacebar or Ctrl-Spacebar. May be related.

Same issue here as well. For me, Shift+Spacebar did work but Ctrl+Spacebar didn't.
