<pre>The issue here is that if the record field names are not well-formed strings,
then it is not possible to create such a record using a string.
This came up when we tried to use the Test actor with a record that
had a field name.
One alternative would be to change the syntax of the record field so that
spaces and other characters would be permitted. Unfortunately, the
parser started getting conflicts if I use {"field with space" = "foo"}
In either RecordAssembler or RecordDisassembler, my workaround was to check
for a port that matched the field name. If none was found, then to try
substituting spaces for any underscores. This is gross, but worked.
The problem is that arbitrary field names are not going to work as they
did before, the spaces and other characters will be converted to underscores.</pre>
