Space between initials in bibliography

Space between initials in bibliography

Hi,

By default there seem to be no space between initials in bibliography
(which I guess there should be?). I can get a space by adding
\setupbtx[
stopper:initials={.\btxspace},
]
but I don't think that this is how the stopper is meant to be used. Do
I miss some other key that I can use to get space inbetween initials?
Minimal example below, and I attach the result without the setting
above (no space V.I. Arnol'd) and with the setting above (space V. I.
Arnol'd).

In the APA specification (publ-imp-apa.mkvi), we have

stopper:initials={. }, % with a (breakable) space

but there is no space by default (publ-ini.mkiv)

stopper:initials={.},
