Lua 5.4 local attribute syntax whitespace sensitivity

[Sergey Zakharchenko <doublef.mobile@...>]

Hello,

As far as i understand, the current (5.4.0) parser requires a space
after the attribute's closing '>' if it's followed by a '=', resulting
in an error "'>' expected near '>='" when parsing e.g. "local
a<close>=f()". I don't mind that too much, but it seems a bit
inelegant to me. Is it going to stay this way, or will the construct
without a space be allowed eventually?

Best regards,
