I guess you hit the same thing while our messages crossing ;-)

To clarify, the above is after I added a_new_field that is one-bit
wide without doing anything else.  I do not mind the checker
complaining the existing force, quiet, etc. whose widths are all
spelled without SP around ':', because they appear near-by, as a
collateral damage.  My only gripe is that the result got squished
into a single line.
