In some ways, it was an invitation for people to indicate if they have a preference. I personally do not have a preference between two spaces after and one space after, but I do have a preference against a mix of two spaces after and one space after. As it (IMO) takes effort (admittedly trivial, and quite likely habitual) to insert a second space, I assume that this was a desired thing and the one space was the aberration, hence the patch went in favor of two spaces. I'd just as soon submit a patch the other way (and if people have an opinion one way or the other, I'm happy to include a change to CodingGuidelines/SubmittingPatches based on people's opinions).
