Bug 330463

I want to create a symbolic link to a file or directory.
I use "Create New -> Basic link to file or directory"
In the popup window "Create symlink" I enter a file name in the upper field.
In the lower field, I type in the path, were the symbolic links should point to;
the path is easily completed while typing to existing paths. My path has blanks in it.
I press "Ok". A symbolic link is created, where the blanks are replaced by "%20".
The link is created correctly, when I use the "Open file dialog"-button just right of the lower input field.

Example: the link should point to ../example directory/example file.
With the path entered in the lower field ls -l shows:
lrwxrwxrwx ....... example file -> ../example%20directory/example%20file
instead of
lrwxrwxrwx ....... example file -> ../example directory/example file

Reproducible: Always
