Description

run the example soc_map_21.kml in ogr2ogr

Generally speaking OGR drivers are expected to return layer and field names as they are in the datasource. It is up to output drivers to offer name laundering options if they have restrictions. So I'm reclassifying this as an SQLLite bug report, with the idea that the sqlite driver ought to either quote field/table names so they work even if they have spaces, or it ought to offer a name laundering option.

I am deliberately leaving no milestone and reclassifying as an enhancement.
