Sometimes I get parts which require strange programs to view.  For
instance, I once got a *.ps.gz which was labeled
application/octet-stream.  Typing `v' on it and then entering "gzcat
%s | ghostview -" did the trick, of course, but it wasn't easy to
enter the spaces, since I had to do C-q SPC for them.

I think that this is a sufficiently common operation so that typing
spaces should be made easier.  Thoughts?

Try it now. A SPC is a SPC.  

Should another key be bound to minibuffer-complete-word?
