So I think there are two convincing arguments so far:
1. The official syntax description allows the space only in
reference-style links, and not in inline links.
2. As Waylan points out, with short reference links, it's pretty easy
to do things like
see [link] (and by the way, blah)
which would be parsed as links if the space were allowed.
