No. It is svn's problem.

imho, should be:

Variant 1:
------------
$ svn mkdir -m "Synchronizer" "http://svn.dimentiy.info/shtrih-m/Shtrih-M
POS"

Error: incorrect URL. Please, use canonical URLs.
------------

OR

Variant 2:
------------
$ svn mkdir -m "Synchronizer" "http://svn.dimentiy.info/shtrih-m/Shtrih-M
POS"

Committed revision 5.

$ svn import -m "initial import" "http://svn.dimentiy.info/shtrih-m/Shtrih-M
POS" .

Adding ...

------------

In second variant, spaces (and some another symbols, may be)
_automatically_ converted to "%20" (may be, additionally display warning).

Second variant is preferred, because:
- some third-party tools may use svn, and some of them may don't check URLs
inside
- svn is cross-platform. Better, if some incompatibles resolves by software
(not user!)
- at first glance, there are no problem to implement this functionality
- cutting down Your support expenses

But current behaviour is wrong. If we can't use wrong URLs - why mkdir
successfully completed ???
