In short, you do not support Max's patch that allows arbitrary
number of white spaces anywhere but at the beginning of line,
but see a room for unrelated improvement from the current code,
namely, to allow exactly one optional space, immediately before
the separator and nowhere else.

It may be a reasonable thing to do that may not break too many
things.  I do not know if that is loose enough to satisify Max's
original wish, though.

Thanks.
