Sorry, I meant (and the example used it that way) leading spaces. That
would affect the way you check for remote keys. Obviously trailing
spaces need tests too, but if advapi32 handles them you don't need
extra handling in the implementation.

That's exactly what the testbot is there for. No excuses ;-) . But
you'll be happier with your own windows machine (or VM) because it has
a way faster response time than the testbot.

There's no point in changing the argument handling if we don't know
that the changes are actually correct.
