My bad. Spaces are not allowed, because

  #+LINK: linkword URL

would not be parse-able. The manual states

    The linkword must be a word, starting with a letter, followed by
    letters, numbers, ‘-’, and ‘_’.

but it seems implementation only disallows spaces (for LINK keyword) and
colons (for links).
