Flight crew will catch most errors. But for a final check, all epubs need to be run through epubcheck.
Besides which, Sigil is a epub 2 editor, and merely doesn't mangle epub3s. Since there are very few devices which display epub3, and the whole field is in flux, it will be some time before epub3 will be fully supported.

This is true, and I don't dispute it. That said, IMHO it is
never a good idea to have spaces in file names or URLs, even if escaped with %characters. So again IMHO it would be good for FC to point out this kind of "error" even though technically it may not be an "error."
And I second your recommendation to use epubcheck after FC. FC has more sane error messages, whereas epubcheck (theoretically) catches everything not in-spec.
