A little thing, I know, but it's driving me crazy...
fossil doesn't allow the following construction::
$ fossil ci -m"this is my message"
Instead, you must say::
$ fossil ci -m "this is my message"
Most command line utilities (notably SVN) allow the first form, without a space, and I'm constantly caught by this. It would be nice if the fossil param parsing allowed the no-space form.

Adding such support would require reimplementing the args parsing support completely and require differentiating between --long-form and -s hort form flags, something fossil doesn't currently do and cannot do without a good deal of significant CLI backwards incompatibility.
