Sorry if I jump the gun before you posted anything more detailed

Did you mean making the parenthesis optional: I would say yes for
sure, any expression that is not ambiguous should not require
parenthesis.

Or did you mean that we should add the word exception as a qualifier
 as in license-id with license-exception-id exception
If so I am not sure this would be warranted. The id for an exception
could be anything, but we could have the convention for SPDX-provided
exceptions IDs to suffix them with
-exception for clarity, though that would not be needed just a nice to
have. IMHO adding the keyword exception would be redundant with the
with keyword.
