Apparently spaces in buffer names are evil and should not be working at all. They should be replaced by e.g. undercores. Here is an extract from #weechat:
mcnesium | so I got this weechat-matrix-protocol-script running and it works
| kinda well. now I do have a buffer called `Bits & Bäume` in my
| list of channels and I wonder how I can apply settings to that
| buffer, eg set notify. since there are spaces and a special
| character, just doing `/set "weechat.notify.lua.bits & bäume"
| message` does not work
mcnesium | the logfiles of the matrix chat channels do have this naming
| scheme featuring spaces in the name, so I tried that, but weechat
| did not take it
simonpatapon | what do you see in /buffer list
mcnesium | 14:04:27 weechat | [13] lua.Bits & Bäume (notify: highlight)
mcnesium | also tried to use nbsp but I am not even sure if weechat differs
| between nbsp and regular space
mcnesium | it always tries to add just a `lua.bits` setting
@nils_2 | spaces aren't supported
@nils_2 | format for example is: /set option value
@FlashCode | mcnesium: if a plugin or a script creates buffer name with spaces,
| it must be fixed, spaces are not supported at all in buffer names
@FlashCode | and in addition, weechat should even refuse to create such buffer
@FlashCode | this reminds me an old issue, I'm looking in issues
@FlashCode | found it: https://github.com/weechat/weechat/issues/937
mcnesium | FlashCode: I see, I will file an issue about that
