Och! What a nightmare!

If it's "really cool" to make Lojban "parsable" whi= lst making it to all intents and purposes *illegible* by removing its white= -space, then it is certainly justifiable to entertain going in the opposite= direction, and applying something approaching standard Western typography = to the language.
