The include tag seems work only when preceded by whitespace

The include tag seems to work only when preceded by whitespace. Example code:

Including on a new line works:

{{< include _date.md >}}

this also works:

     {{< include _date.md >}}

This does not work: {{< include _date.md >}}

the rendered HTML output is:

Including on a new line works:

May 26, 2022

this also works:

May 26, 2022

This does not work:

is that by design? Thanks.

Thanks for the report! I'm using #1767 to track. The short answer is that it's an accident of previous implementations of shortcodes. We'd like to change that, but it will take a while, so we don't have a firm timeline on this yet.

Is there any hack I can use in the meantime to make this work?
