create-domain with --domaindir having a space?

When I do:

asadmin create-domain --passwordfile ~/password --user admin --adminport 4848
--domaindir /Volumes/Memorex\ UFD/domains adomain

I get:
CLI176 Argument for --domaindir option cannot contain spaces.

Why can't domaindir have a space in it?
Is this a bug or a feature?

Thanks,
Kedar

PS - note that it the space has to be escaped with a '\', which I have done.
