That's a bug. I'll change it back. Trailing spaces should be allowed.

I ran a program which used 8!:2 formatting and it failed under the new beta-f.
I've used the program for years and It ran fine under previous versions.
The failure was caused by a space at the end of the formatting string. and
removing the space solved the problem. The space was after the 10.5 in the
fragment below:
(,'p<N>m<S>9.5,p<E>m<W>10.5 ' 8!:2 [ll),CRLF
|domain error
| (,'p<N>m<S>9.5,p<E>m<W>10.5 ' 8!:2[ll),CRLF
(,'p<N>m<S>9.5,p<E>m<W>10.5' 8!:2 [ll),CRLF
N45.10000 W93.20000
I don't consider this a bug, but it may cause others to need fix their code too.
