Description

Assuming spaces in field names are still bad, we should automatically convert them to not have spaces. For instance, I indexed Citibike public data set which has:

"tripduration","starttime","stoptime","start station id","start station name","start station latitude","start station longitude","end station id","end station name","end station latitude","end station longitude","bikeid","usertype","birth year","gender"

My vote would be to replace spaces w/ underscores.
