Besides, the problem with "half spaces" isn't solved that way.

Yes, I know. This problem was what started me to think about blanks, but it mainly belongs to the writing technique than to a cypher mechanism.


I'd even expect
ambiguities about spacing ("Is that a seperator or not?") would be worse if the
spaces were part of the code rather than part of the plaintext.

Yes, and I would have expected a greater care in rendering them, if they have some special meaning (but I know this is a psychological argument of dubious validity).
