Automatic Underscore when spacebar is pressed

As most of the artist use underscore instead of leaving space in between for naming stuff so why not make it permanent or maybe a checkbox option somewhere in preferences :)

May be it have sense. I don`t use it, but I suppose, underscore can be used for compatability. So yes, option like «force underscore instead space in names» But what would you do, when you need space in the name? New mode should allow it. Describe it.

* @ Vyacheslav * That's why there should be a checkbox somewhere in the viewport to turn on or off this (btw I have never used space when naming objects or even while naming files and almost never seen anyone used it either, it was just my opinion maybe most of them still use for something I don't know.

* @ezeez2104 * No, checkbox isn`t equal to current behaviour: space with one big key and underscore with two keys. So situation shoul be reversed.

I use space and never had problem with it. When I should export somwhere in the engine, that do not understand spaces, I will replace spaces for underscores.

In coding there is no option for variable name with space, so I use underscore always.
