whitespace in json keys

[Justin Dowdy]

characters.json:

{
  "characters": [
    {
      "first name": "Ash",
      "lastname":"Ketchum"}
      ]
    }

is valid json.

but:

cat characters.json | docker run --rm -i atomgraph/json2rdf 'http://tmp.com/
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.jena.riot.RiotException: <http://tmp.com/#first name> Code: 17/WHITESPACE in FRAGMENT: A single whitespace character. These match no grammar rules of URIs/IRIs. These characters are permitted in RDF URI References, XML system identifiers, and XML Schema anyURIs.

should json2rdf just make the decision to delete non URI safe characters or maybe percent encode them?

if anyone is looking for a solution for this sparql-anything url encodes spaces in json keys:

xyz:characters  [ rdf:_1  [ <http://sparql.xyz/facade-x/data/first%20name>
