Spaces in file names of files in drawer

I use drawers for some programs and documents, but I found that if a file
name has spaces in it, it can't be opened from the drawer. I guess that I'm
supposed to enter quotes (", which really are inch characters; " are the
real quotes, but never mind…) somewhere, but exactly where? I tried a few
places, but everything I tried failed.

It seems like a document in a drawer really is a starter and the start
command seems to be file://path/filename, for example:
file:///home/me/MyFolder/MyFile.odt. So, if I want to open another file,
called "My other fil.odt" in that very same folder,
file:///home/me/MyFolder/My other file.odt won't work. How can i make this
work?
