Description Hugo Marchadour

The detection of Acceleo3 expression doesn't handle pre and post white spaces.
These expressions don't work (in VSM or Interpreter):
* " [self/]"
* "[self/] " 
* " [self/] "

We can make a "trim()" on expression or directly in the VSM property section editor.

Or we should throw a warning during the VSM validation process (and a quick fix that trim white-spaces).

I've pushed a DRAFT here https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/20120/

Sample of warning:
Whitespace(s) in excess to be interpreted by AcceleoMTLInterpreter.
DefaultInterpreterProvider will be used instead of AcceleoMTLInterpreter.
You should replace " [self/] " by "[self/]"

A quick fix could be added.

Acceleo 3 / MTL is more or less deprecated, and there is a simple workaround anyway ("[' ' + self/]"); closing as WONTFIX.
