Its a feature. The only thing guaranteed by the audit system is that 
name=value pairs are supported. Additional text may be there to add context 
for people reading the event. But for machine parsing only name=value is 
returned. So, if the additional text is needed, then either '-' or '_' can be 
added between words (as many other events do).
