 When the augeas lens for sudoers encounters a user/group name that has
 escaped spaces, it does not parse the line correctly.  For example, this
 causes problems:

 @my\ admin\ group ALL=(ALL) NOPASSD: ALL

 In my testing, the token "admin" would end up being the saved in the host
 list, causing the rest of the line to fail parsing.

 I was able to get correct parsing with the following diff applied, however
 I'm not sure if this would have any further repurcusions:
