How about changing the core MakePageName function so that
the splitting of group and name part is not hardcoded, but
defined with a global:

either the current default:
   SDV($GroupSeparatorPattern, '/[.\\/]/');

or a new one allowing dot-spaces in names:
   SDV($GroupSeparatorPattern, '/\\/|\\.(?!\\s)/');

Then it can be customised alongside $PageNameChars and
$MakePageNamePatterns, and without having to introduce a
whole custom MakePageName function.

MakePageName is such a central core function; and while a recipe
version may work very well, there is the danger it may be outdated.
