Billinghurst added a comment.

as a comment, I believe that we also used to have a terminating chomp of trailing space as part of the lookahead function, and now the addition of a space is literal in lookahead. If that is purposeful behaviour, okay; if it is not, then maybe it can be looked at again.

There are benefits in either scheme in having a literal space, though if you have the space and don't identify that in the result, it can lead to thinking that a term does not exist and either creating it (as duplicate) or not linking an item.
