Servlet initArgs incoporating spaces

Problem:

When setting up Servlets using the Jigsaw servlets.properties file,
space is interpreted as a separator. This means that initArg values
can't include spaces. You can set up initArgs with spaces through the
jigadmin interface, but jigadmin is just too clumsy and cumbersome for
setting up systems which have large numbers of servlets each with large
numbers of initArgs.

Is there any way in the servlet.properties file of delimiting or
escaping initArgs to allow the inclusion of spaces? Here's an example of
what I want from an Apache JServ servlet zone properties file:

----------------------------- cut here: example ------------------------
servlet.locations.code=uk.co.weft.htform.List
servlet.locations.initArgs=title=Locations,query_template=select * from
location order by
name,action_url=/deadskunk/location,action_field=location,link_field=name,can_add=Add
a new LOCATION
----------------------------- cut here: example ------------------------
