Debugging does not work on path that contains spaces

If I use the default project path for my silverlight project in Orcas, and hit run, I get an error telling me it can't find the project. After that the application and IE hangs for about 1 minute.

The default path on Vista is: C:\Users\[username]\Documents\Visual Studio Codename Orcas\Projects\myProject

The spaces in 'Visual Studio Codename Orcas' seems to be the cause of the problem. Moving the project to a folder without spaces makes it works just fine (the problem is that VS replaces spaces with '%20', which would only work if it were running via HTTP, but in this case it uses direct file access)
