      When a project's path has a space in it and I click the Terminal icon to open a terminal to the current project, I get an error that `-bash: cd: too many arguments`. This is because the space makes it appear that there are two (or more) arguments passed to `cd`.

      Escaping the path, or placing the path in quotes will make it possible to use this feature.

            That is only true for the native Terminal. If you choose iTerm2 the path is not escaped.

            I'm not able to reproduce this using 2.4. Paths are properly escaped when opening in Terminal via contextual menu item or toolbar item. Please provide additional details and/or a screen recording.
