Windows doesn't either. But most users do not use the shell very often. 
And then they realize, why it's bad to have spaces in directories.

But, on the other hand, a script which assumes the path does not contain
spaces is not correct. When I've got some time (around christmas or so),
I'll take a look to the install script and fix this.
