Now I see that this new requirement is documented in Info manual subsection 7.1 Property syntax. I had only checked subsection 2.8 Drawers. I didn't see the changelog because I updated through Emacs' package menu, and I intended to update frequently (including between formal releases), so I wouldn't check the changelog. I now realize that skipping the changelog is barely acceptable when you just want to use the software, but is unacceptable when you want to report regressions. Still, Org itself should interactively mention this change (pointing either to manual subsection 7.1 or to orgmode.org/Changes.html) instead of just cryptically saying "malformed drawer found". This slight increase in verbosity would help users like me and I don't see any significant downside. And please forgive any English mistake, I am Brazilian.
