Yes, I did. I was under the impression that "<space>" would not work.
I found some links to that effect:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/446269/can-i-use-space-as-mapleader-in-vim
http://www.reddit.com/r/vim/comments/dh4u5/let_mapleader_space/

I have never tried it though. Maybe it's also an issue with missing quotes...

In any case the way vim-latex set the mappings was broken. I just
changed it so that the behavior stays the same except for my problem.

I did not want to change this. But I agree it would make a lot of
sense. Maybe this variable could then default to <Leader> to keep the
current behavior?
Also maybe an option not to set those mappings and let users set their
own mappings would be useful.

Best,
