Despite that only affecting headers from the cache, which what your patch does, I do not see the point here. Do you want to support cases where there is no space between the ':' and the header content ?

Sorry, that sentence from the description got lost somehow:

While we already support "any" as ">= 1, spaces or tabs" by calling trimmed() before checking we have been failing for "any" as in "nothing".

So: yes, this is the whole purpose of this patch.
