If ?\s is not followed by `-', it causes the error "Invalid
escape character syntax". And, in the case we use ?\s for a
space character, it is certainly not followed by `-'. So, I
think there's no prblem in introducing this new syntax.
But, I myself think it is better to find another solution
because ?\s is too cryptic to be introduced newly. Or, I
think just ?\040 or ?\x20 is good enough even if it depends
of ASCII encoding. At least it is better than 32 because it
conceptually represents a character, not a number.
