I'm okay with whitespace before the colon (or !, as the case may be).
After the colon, I'd say it's significant and can't be automatically
removed, because a particular formatter might care (for example, "%Y %M
%D" for dates).
Currently the code doesn't allow whitespace before the colon. I can add
this if time permits, once everything else is implemented.
