I can't currently think of a scenario where the change breaks a working
setup.

In LaTeX2e, spaces in environment names are significant, so \begin{foo}
is not equivalent to \begin{foo } or \begin{ foo }, therefore I think
the current code is wrong.

The former group is not affected at all since LaTeX has no environment
names with spaces.  The latter will actually get what they're asking for
with the change I proposed, which is a follow-up to 808917b3fc.
