For example the test:

test variable usage [[
  int32 [[x]] = 1;
  int32 y = [[x]] + 1;
]] resolve #2 to #1

Succeeds, but if you use [[ x ]] instead (with spaces around the x), the marker cannot be resolved.

I believe it’s because this https://github.com/metaborg/spt/blob/new-spoofax-plugin/org.metaborg.meta.lang.spt/editor/java/org/metaborg/meta/lang/spt/strategies/SelectionFetcher.java#L101-L103 condition matches the exact offset. For example the Matches starts at location 159, but the AST term starts at 160.

I believe the whitespace was ignored in spoofax 1.4. Naively ignoring the layout is probably not what you want, as some languages have significant whitespace.
