Mailto: links strip user-specified data at "space" (i.e. ?subject=my subject here&body=body message here)

Description
I'd like the ability for a visitor to click an email link and have the subject filled out automatically.
This is currently possible by appending "?subject=My Subject Here" to the mailto: link. However, everything after the first space is stripped off, so it is impossible to add multi-word subjects (except for the workaround below).
This could be implemented by just not stripping off the end of the subject. (although maybe it is stripped off currently due to security reasons?)
To workaround this, I type 20 in place of "space", which browsers x%x email programs convert to a space.
- It would also be possible to add additional fields in the typo3 back-end to enter the email subject.

Writing %20 is fully compliant to XHTML and HTML standards and has to be used.
