F&O3.0 states in 9.8.4.1 The picture string

"Whitespace within a variable marker is ignored."

Since the variable marker may contain a "first presentation modifier", which
may be

"... any format token permitted as a primary format token in the second
argument of the fn:format-integer function"

and whitespace might form a part of such a primary format token (e.g. as a
grouping separator), is this correct?

I'm not sure there are any tests covering whitespace in the picture string,
such as the following:

format-date(xs:date('2034-01-02'), "[ Y 9 999  ]")
