No, arguments with spaces have to be quoted.  ParseArgs would see
the above as:

    "title"     => "My"
    ""          => "Title" "With" "Spaces"
    "time"      => "2005-12-12T11:27:00-05:00"
    "permalink" => "Blog.20051211"

Also, at some point PmWiki is also likely to provide a function for 
converting ISO formatted dates into Unix timestamps (unless PHP already 
has one).  But I wouldn't plan on it happening "immediately" -- it may 
be a month or so before it makes it into a release.
