I would not do it here. However it worth to file a follow up issue: we
should either fix or document this behaviour. It seems that it may be
very unexpected that space:update / upsert does not follow, say,
encode_invalid_numbers (if a user use this option and see that it works
for other box functions).

Thank you!

The pathset looks mostly okay for me. I gave LGTM (with some minor
comments) for the first three patches. I would discuss the option name
in the fourth patch.
