any space character will be replaced by '_'.

Don't expect the installer packages pick this up and create code to register the icon path into registry. Wix's heat (harvester tool) only registers the assemblies into the clients machine but you should register the addin icon yourself. refer to QrifyInstaller to see how it's done in Wix.
