Problem wth LG .htaccess Generator and Pages Module

I just encountered a problem which is really a user/process problem with LG .htaccess Generator. The consequences of the problem are severe enough though that I think a solution needs to be created to resolve it.

I have a number of users who manage content on our local Girl Scout council site. I have the Pages module turned on so that if a specific group needs a landing page with a nice simple seo friendly URL they can create it themselves. Just a little while ago one of them created a page and in the Pages URI field they used two words without a hyphen (/Horse Program/ instead of /horse-program/).

This created a much larger issue and essentially brought our entire site down. I also have LG .htaccess Generator turned on and it added “Horse Program” to the following .htaccess rule:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(search|site|extranet|products|includes|programs-and-events|member-area|about|membership|public-events|login|espanol|summer-camp|news|volunteers-and-parents|council-information|administration|wiki|sitemap|encampments|gallery|support-the-sash|includes2|public|about||membership|public-events|member-surveys|login|espanol|council-information|volunteers-and-parents|administrative|surveys|news|programs-and-events|annual-meeting|cms-training|administration|Horse Program|members|P[0-9]{2,8}) [NC]

That additional space crashed the .htaccess file which effectively brought down our entire site with a 500 Internal Server Error.

I think that it would probably be relatively simple for LG .htaccess Generator (and maybe the Pages module as well) to replace spaces with hyphens, and/or disallow anything submitted in the Pages URI field that includes a space.
