Yes, you are right. :-)
Since 2010/12/09 v1.13 option `space' also supports XeTeX.
Quotes are used to support the spaces.

Thus update, if your version is older.
Otherwise make a minimal example, because the space feature works
for me in TL:

% xelatex or pdflatex
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{grffile}

\begin{document}
\includegraphics{s 1.png}
\end{document}
