Replace URL spaces with dashes instead of %20
Please change how SharePoint generates links to uploaded documents and site pages, so that URLs with spaces will replace %20 with a dash instead. Most CMS tools including blogs do when generating SEO friendly URLs. Links with %20 throughout are too difficult to read.
This feedback site is a perfect example:

Optimize Access Request Settings for site owners
Three requested updates to significantly improve the Access Request process:
1) Allow multiple users to receive access requests
Access requests (Site Settings > Site Permission > Access Request Settings) can be sent to anyone with an email address, but it has three critical downsides: 1) you are limited to one email recipient; 2) the field does not accept SharePoint groups; and 3) it’s prone to misspellings of email addresses since the field is not a people picker.
One of the most extreme examples of how this is broken: My company’s CEO needs access to a file s/he has a link…

Site administrators can now customize the access request page with a message of their choice. We’ve also made it easier to see who will be receive access requests on your site.

Make the ThemedCssFolderUrl property of the Web object available in the CSOM
You cannot currently load or set the ThemedCssFolderUrl property of the Web object in CSOM. After applying a theme (for example, using the sample PnP code), returning to the app from the newly-themed site shows that the SP.UI chrome control cannot find what it needs to properly display. We need a way to ensure that a new theme that is deployed from the app can set this value so that when returning to the app afterwards the chrome control can continue to display properly.
4 votesWe released this property as part of the November 2016 SharePoint Online CSOM NuGet package release. Thanks for your input and hopefully you’ll find the enhancement useful.
