Sure.  I wasn't clear: I just put the comment in my example to show that
the variable value was empty.

I'm talking about ALL instances of += adding empty text: whether it's a
comment, or "nothing", or an empty variable, etc.

They all consistently add a space today; I don't think that's correct
and I believe they should all consistently not add anything.
